5. D. Holloman.
, On the afternoon of July 23,
1913, after several weeks illness
- with typhoid fever, Samuel D.
Holloman passed from his earth
ly home to the "Great Beyond."
He was the only son of Mr. and
Mrs. S.J. Holloman and was born
near Murfreesboro. N. C., Feb
ruary 20, 1886. He is "survived
by his parents, seven sisters and
his wife.all of whom he was per
fectly devoted to. He made a
profession rf religion quite early
in life, at about the age of thir
teen, and joined the Baptist
church in Murfreesboro and re
mained a consistent member un
til God called him home to live
with Him, where there is no more
sickness and pain.
On December 23, 1909, he was
happily married to Miss Mattie
Draper of Conway. He was per
fectly devoted to his wife, and
ehe and three of his sisters were
ill with typhoid at the time of
his death, too ill for them to be
told of his death, it was several
weeks before they knew it, and
indeed it was a great shock to
them The Rev. Mr. Sullivan
preached his funeral atMeherrin
on the third Sunday morning in
October. Mr. Sullivan visited
him several times during his ill
ness End talked with him con
cerning the future. He told Mr.
Sullivan he was not afraid to die,
but he didn't vant to die.
It seems sad to us for one to
be taken in the prime of life, but
God doeth all things for the best
and we must be resigned to His
will and comfort ourselves with
the thought, that Sam i3 not dead
but waiting for his loved ones
where there will be no more sick
ness or sorrow.
I knew Sam from a little boy
up to death, he was one of the
best boys I ever saw, and as he
grew to manhood he remained
the same quiet, polite and re
spectful way to every one.I never
have heard any one speak of him
except to" praise him. He was
perfectly devoted to his wife, pa
rents and sisters, so to the be
reaved loved ones I . extend my
heartfelt sympathies and direct
them fcr comfort to an all wise
and ever bless d God in this sad
hour of i.ffl'ciior).
Sorrow aad a sine of affl-.ction
are a school of virtue, it reduces
our spirit?? to soberness and our
counsels to moderation. God who
governs the world in mercy and
wisdom.never would have suffer
ed the virtuous o.es to endure so
many keen afflictions and sor
rows, did he not intend that thev
should be the seminary of com
fort, the exercise of wisdom and
the trial of patience, the ventur
ing for a crown and the gate of
glory. Adversity is the touch
stone oi" character, grief is a com
mon bond that unites hearts; the
visitations of sorrow are univer
sal. How uncertain is human life! i
There is but a breath of air and j
a beat of the heart between this j
world and the next. The last
faint pulsation here is but the
prelude ot endless joys hereaf-i
ter
In the midst of the calamity
that has befallen us when death
is in the family circle, and some
loved one has been taken from j
us. we feel as if earth had no
compensating good to migitate
the severity of our loss. There
is now rest for those who have
lived the true and good life. Take
comfort, then, those of you in
whose history the dearest chari
ties of life have been 3evercd by
the rude hand of death, those
whom you have thought about
as lost, are not lost, 'except to
present sight. Perhaps even, now
they are angel watchers screened
, by a kindly Trovidence from
everything about that could give
vou pain. We are born for a
higher destiny than that of earth.
'' - There is . a realm where the
rain-bow never fades, when the
like the islands that slumber on
the ocean, and where the beauti
fill beings that here pass before
us like visions will stay in our
presence forever.
Death's but a path that must
be trod
If man would ever pass to God."
