Mrs. J. A. Sloman, In the silent city of the dead at Cave Spring there is a newly made grave, which was covered Thursday, July 19th with beautiful wreaths of flowers, the loving tribute of her many friends. In this grave lies one whom I have loved and known for many years, Mrs. J.A. Sloman. She was a loving wife, a devoted mother and a true Christian, loved by all who knew her. She leaves a husband and 8 children and a host of friends to mourn her loss. Weep not, dear children, mother is not dead, but only asleep. ­ One Who Loved Her.
