Mrs. Harper’s Death (Contributed) On April 23, 1938, death entered the home of Earl Harper, and claimed from him his devoted wife, Sudie Lue Jenkins Harper. She was born Sept. 13, 1914, and died April 23, 1938; was married Sept. 17, 1932 to Earl Harper. To this union was born one daughter, Ha zel Louise, age 4 years. She pro fessed faith in Christ in early life and joined Corinth M.P. Church and was a faithful member until the end. She was friendly and loving to all who knew her, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in the time of need. She was a devoted wife and mother, and will be greatly missed in her home and community. ’Tis hard to give her up. While we know our loss is her eternal gain. She was in declining health for several years before she was finally con fined to bed and brought to the Roanoke Rapids Hospital where she bore her sufferings patiently until the end came. Loving hands did all for her that could be done, but could give her but little rest or comfort in this world, but we have this good consolation, that she liv ed the life in this world that we can know she is safely resting now where there is no pain or death. While she was called in early life some day we will understand and we should know God does all things for the best. Her death has cast a shadow over a number of lives and her chair is left vacant in our homes that can never be filled. May God’s comforting blessings be upon the bereaved family and es pecially her husband, little daugh ter and aged father and mother. She told me a few days before her death that she had nothing to fear and didn’t mind dying only to leave her husband, her child and loved ones, for she knew she could have rest when God took her to his e ternal home. We should all be thankful to know she was ready and willing to answer God’s call and be prepared to meet her again. She was gently laid to rest on A pril the 25 in Corinth Cemetery where a large number of her loved ^Halifax Hisses Josephine Murcer and Eu genia Farlow of Kenansville were guests of Mrs. A. L.

We rmgs. the one we love still, a place jfieft' vacant in our so well. Her precious voice is homes that never can be filled. God in his wisdom, the boon of love has given, and tho on earth her body lies, her soul is safe in heaven. A sister in law, B. L. J. Editor’s Note: vThe above was printed because it was promised.

Secretary I IN MEMORIAM In sad and loving remembrance of my dear husband, Mr. W. E. Bradley, who departed .this life one year ago May 11th, 1937. One long and lonely year has passed since that sad day when the one I loved so dearly was called away. I loved him then, I love him still. I miss him now and al ways will. Your weary hours and days of pain, your troubled nights are passed. Your ever patient worn out frame has found sweet rest at last. In the graveyard sweetly sleeping where the trees gently wave, lies the one I loved so dearly in a lone and silent grave; but I miss you, dear husband, miss your dear voice and tender care. And my heart is always saddened when I see your vacant chair. Your dear warm heart is stilled, but a place is vacant in my heart that can never be filled. By one who loved him. His wife, Mrs. W. E.
