Death entered the quite home of Robert E. Williams Friday, March 1st and stole from them their darling baby, Robbie, after an illness of 13 days of pneumonia fever. We know 'tis hard to give up their only little one they had, but God's will must be done. Dear parents you have one hope and that is to meet that darling one on the banks of sweet deliverance where parting is no more. It's remains where tenderly laid to rest in Pleasant Hill cemetery. We sympathize with the bereaved parents.
SEMELE
Addison CURRY, a well known citizen of Washington precinct, died on Friday last, aged 70 years, 4 mos, and 8 days. Funeral services were held at the residence on Sunday morning last by Rev. R.W.Perdue, after which the remains were laid away in the Masonic cemetery. Mr. Curry was born in Highland Co., Ohio, September 7, 1826, and came to Massac Co. in 1851. During all the years that intervened from 1851 to the date of his death he was a resident of Washington precinct, except a few years spent in Metropolis. In 1852 he was married to Miss Rebecca Bumgardner, a sister of Captain Asa Bumgardner of this city, who survives him, though she has been in feeble health for some time. He leaves no children. Mr. Curry was classed as one of the pioneers in Massac Co., being one of the many sterling men who came from Ohio in search of fresher fields along in the fifties. For the good deeds of his life his memory is respected. May he rest in peace.
At Rest
Death has entered the home of Jonas and Belle Spivey and took from them their darling baby, Hobart, and transplanted into the paradise of God. He was born Aug. 13, 1900, age 3 years and 9 days. He was laid to rest in the Central grave yard.
Dear parents, weep no more for dear little Hobart, for he has gone a joined the heavenly host and while it seems hard it is little Hobart's gain. We lay thee in thy silent tomb. Sweet blossoms of the day: We just begin to view the bloom, When thou art called away: At last released from pains, Our little darling sleep: How calm and peaceful thy repose, While Christ thy soul doth keep.
