IHUtlS M Alt IK JEXNIMIS
On Monday, September the .eigh
teenth, in nineteen-bundred and twen
ty-aeven, God lent a l'ttle bud to
earth, to live with Willie and Mattle
J timings. Thia little flower waa In
the form of a baby girl. They called
her Doris Marie.
pittle Dorla waa bright as a sun
beam in the home. It seemed that
her mission here waa to scatter light
end radiate happiness whereever she
went. Always she waa ready to smile
tot those she loved, and all who knew
her loved her.
But her mission here waa short,
risking her stay on earth a visit.
That visit will always be remembered
with tenderness, for the sunshine
that she spread.
Lit/tie Doris had been slightly 111
for about a week when she calmly
closed her eyes in sleep to awake in
Jesus. At this time she was two
years, twenty-rfwo days old. Her
death occurlng on the ninth day of
October.-?~
To us it la a mystery that one we
love so well should be taken from us.
But, "God works in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform."
She leaves to mourn - her loss her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Willie Jennings
and little Infant brother, Willie Jun
ior, of Franklinton, besides a number
of relatives and friends.
The little body was laid to rent in
the cemetery of Maple Springs Bap
tist church. Rev. Stamps of Louls
burg and Rev. Mr. J. O. Ball of
Franklinton conducted* the funeral
services.
Friends and relatives gathered
aronnd the little grave of Dorla, to
pay a last sad tribifte. The many
Rowers were tokens of love to her.
The family has the heart-felt sym
pathy of friends. ?
