Cockrell, .vho departed this life on Tuesday, December 10, 1029. He was 50 years old. It was so hard to give him up although we feel our loss means heaven and everlasting! pe'ace to him. Uncle Jim, was sick only one i week with pneumonia. He bore his sufferings patiently and only , trusted in the Lord to have his way. The day before he died his daughter, Mrs. A Trie Kirkman, was standing by his bedside and tears began to roll down her cheeks and' he said: “Don’t worry about me. Maybe by the grace of God I will get well and if not, 1 am ready to go." He often told his friends, “I aim ready to go; I feel prepared to meet my God.” j A few days before he died he | said he wanted some one to go | for his pastor, Rev. W. M. Ferrell.! Rev. Mr, Ferrell came and Uncle j Jim talked with him and told him j he was not afraid to die, that there was nothing between him and his God. Oh! how happy we1 feel when we only stop to think and realize his troubles are for ever past. All is joy and happi ness now. We mourn his departure but we cannot wish him back in this cold world of sin, sorrow and trials 'of every kind. We can only strive to prepare to meet him when our Saviour calls us. We often think just why he was taken from us. It seems he was needed so -much. But some day we’ll un derstand. We can’t see why it was so, but we know it was God’s holy will. Uncle Jim was a faithful l member cf Holly Springs Free ! w ill Baptist church and always attended when he was able. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. M. Ferrell. The active pallbearers were members cf the Junior Order cf the Little River Council of which he was a faith ful member. Why do we mourn departing friends, Or shake at death’s alarms ? j *Tis but the voice that Jesus sends. IY> call them to his arms, nhough lost, he’s lost to eamthi Above He will be found.
