Lorenza D.jw, the- oldest fon cf Mr. and Mrs. Mike Thomas, died at his home a few miles from Scotland j Neck Sunday morning, July 19th, 1 1903, age 17 years. He had been j sick only two weeks with typhoid- pneumonia, and all was done for j him that a kind physician and loving i parents could do, but all to no avail. Just a few minutes to ten o'clock he closed his eyes, and without a murmur he sweetly passed away to the world unknown. "Bud," as he was always called, was a kind and loving boy, always ready when he was called upon. He will be greatly missed in his home and community. Oh, how hard it is to give him up, but we ail know the Lord's will must be done. He leaves a father, mother, four brothers, three sisters and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his loss. His remains were taken to Deep Creek church and laid to rest Monday morning at 11 o'clock, Elder W. H. Leggett conducting the buri al services. j "Darling boy, thou has left us, And we long for thee in vain, But we know thou art freed from All thy earthly care and pain. "But our lonely hearts are aching, For your sweet face we miss, And we long for thee, our darling. Whom we never more shall kiss. j EDISON Until f .1 : ' ' j . ... -1 .. II 11 1 i 4 '. .
