Is It a Monument op Tombstone?
If you w'sh to put in a little busi
ness in the way of purchasing a mon
ument or tombstone while in Nor

Marble Works. The proprietors
have carried an advertisement in
these columns for years, and we have
never dealt with more agreeable
people. See them at 159 Bank street
and you will leave with a good im
pression. Miss Rebecca F. Pnrrington.
At her residence in Scotland Neck,
after a short illness preeeeded by
poor health for some time, on Sun
day, June 2, 1907, about G p. m.,
Miss Rebecca F. Purrington, in the
seventy-fourth year of her age,
passed through 'death into life to be
with her Lord and Savior.
She has been a faithful and de
voted member of the Episcopal
church in Scotland Neck for many
years. The church has had no truer
friend, no one who has been a more
sincere, earnest and continuous ad
vocate of the church's precepts and
practices than Miss Rebecca Pur
rington. She has been in all things
a continuous worker for her church.
She has never relaxed her efforts to
do all the good she could for the ad
vancement and Welfare of her
church. Of her it could be truly
said, she loved her church. She was
ever endeavoring to do good and to
promote the truth of God as she held
it and believed it. Her whole and
sole wish was to do all the good she
could for others and to be as nearly
like her Lord and Savior a3 possible,
striving to follow His blessed ex
ample in spirit and in truth, and to
"walk in the light as He is the
light," that she might "have fellow
ship" with all Christian people.
Such was Miss Rebecca Purrinerton.
She will be long missed in her
church and in her church's work in
Scotland Neck.
"In the way of righteousness is
life and in the pathway thereof there
is no death." So that the exarmple
and the prayers and the services of
the faithful must shed abroad con
tinuously in all directions sweet hal
lowing influences for good that will
never perish.
The burial was in old Trinity
church cemetery at 4:30 p. m., June
3, 1907. A goodly procession follow
ed the remains to the grave. Beau
tiful hymns, such as Miss Rebecca
dearly loved, were used the 419th,
"It is not death to die" and the
394th, "O Paradise! O Paradise!"
These hymns were sung with voices
tremulous with sorrow at the loss of
our long cherished friend and sister,
who has knelt and prayed and com
muned side by side with us at the
altar of God for the last time on
earth. We shall see her gentle pres
ence no more till we meet in that
land where death is not known and
partings never come.
Many beautiful wreaths and lovely
crosses of flowers, tributes of re
spect and tender affection, garnished
the grave. r lowers, these stars oi
earth, these golden flowers, emblems
of our own great resurrection, em
blems of the bright and better land."
"The universal heart of man blesses
flowers." Flowers wreathe the cradle
and the tomb. vv
