| MEMBER OF WHITE
I HILL CHURCH DIES
! _
| Funeral Services Held For Miss
| Sarah Jackson, Aged 78; Sirs.
[ Jones’ Christmas Message —
| OTHER WHITE HILL ITEMS
! By MRS. G. P. JONES
WHITE HILL, Dec. 19.—Oh, the
oldfashioned death! God bless all that
see it.
As the sun was slowly sinking in
to western skies Wednesday after
noon, leaving the last rays flickering
across our path, the death angel came
and claimed a neighbor friend and
kinswoman, Miss Sarah Bell Jackson.
She was bom Dec. 30,1861, and had
she lived just a few more days would
have been 78 years old. She was the
daughter of Hobert Jackson and Mary
Jane Currie Jackson. Surviving is a
sister, Mrs. Ellie Willitt, of Tramway,
the last one left of that family, also
eight nieces and nephews.
Miss Sarah Bell attended Buffalo
Presbyterian church during her child
hood and first joined there. When
White Hill church was organized, she
moved her membership, being one of
the six charter members of White
Hill. She was also a charter member
of the White Hill Woman’s Auxiliary
to which she gave her earnest sup
port throughout her long life.
For twenty-four years she lived in
tho home of the late B. Cole in San
ford. Mr. Cole’s first wife was Miss
Sarah’s sister and was an invalid for
several years prior to her death. She
nursed her with Mu- tenderest care
and cast her love nnd devotion around
those in that hom>. Vi;, or Mrs. Cole’s
death, she remained on with Mr. Cole
I and the children. In late years she
returned to the ancestral home near
Center church to nurse and take care
of two old sisters, Misses Flora Ann
and Dicy Jackson. To these she saw
to every want and need. Following
their deaths she stayed on at the old
home. She kept a companion with her.
Miss Ruby Elliott spent a large part
of il-.e time with her.
I A Useful Life
A Ions' and useful life has boen
closed, a life that was spent for oth
ers, a life that was and will remain
an inspiration to her nieces and ne
phews and ‘to all those that knew
her. She loved her church, she loved
her family, neighbors and friends.
Above all she loved and put her trust
in the Great Maker and looked for
ward to the day when she would
stand before Him and hear Him say,
“Well done, thou good and faithful
j servant. At last her weary body is
| at rest and her soul has gone home
I to God. Down through the ages of
time she never faltered nor complain
ed. Still time will tell, our footsteps
will weaken and our bodies will fail
under the heavy burdens of life. This
grand old lady loved her home, the
same home where when they were
children they sat around the big fire
place with their parents and enjoyed
companionship that only comes to a
family where they are the parents
that strive to teach their chlidren to
fear God and keep His command
ments. They gather them around the
fireside and conduct a period of de
votion. That was the kind of home
life Miss Sarah knew. She had kept
the many things that once belonged
to members of the family. On the
mantlepiece was an old glass pitcher
that her grandmother carried with
her to Center church years ago to
bring her water from a nearby spring.
On the wall hung a handworked pic
ture, under which was the word
“Mother”/ There were the old cover
lets and bedspreads that they made
in their younger days.
Last Christmas we sang Christmas
carols outside her door. This Christ
mas as we go about trying to cheer
up the aged and shutins we will try
to imagine her with our loved ones
gone on singing Christmas carols
with the angels.
Funeral services were held from
White Hill church Thursday after
noon at 2:30. The Rev. A. J. Groves,
retired Methodist minister of Sanford,
who had known the deceased forty
years, conducted the funeral, assisted
by Rev. C. M. Voyles of Cameron.
Rev. M. D. McNeill, a life long friend
of the family who had conducted the
funerals for the other members of the
family, was unable to be there.”
As the casket was borne into the
church the pianist played “How Firm
a Foundation.” Other favorite hymns
of hers were sung during the ser
vices. Interment took place in the
church cemetery besides those that
she had so carefully cared for in their
last days.
Merry Christmas
We are back again to the time of
year to say Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year. May 1, again ex
tend this wish to the members of the
Moore County News force, to the
other correspondents ar.d to the read
ers of my letter. I appreciate all the
nice things that have been said about
this letter and I hope Santa Claus
will be good to each one of you.
May I plead with you when you
read this to check your list and be
sure there are no children or aged
people that Santa might overlook.
Sometimes there are those not so for
tunate as others and a small remem
brance will be deeply appreciated and
make Christmas brighter for them.
Then, too, we can celebrate our
Christmas in peace while war torn
Europe struggles on through their
battlefields. May our prayers be that
soon it will ring through all the na
tions, “Peace on earth, good will to
ward' men.”

the deer back and Mac was minus a

all the pieces were sewed together
there would be over live hundred
yards.
