Nov-M912-ll-6-8t. Death of Mrs. Camilla Blalock, Mrs. Camilla Bushnell Blalock passed peacefully away at 1:30 o'clock Monday morning at the home of her son, Rev. P. P. Bla lock. She was in her 75th yeer, and instead of being the victim of any specific or acute malady, her steady lons of vitality during the four weeks she was confined to her bed seemed to be due to a general breakdown, which resulted from her advanced af?e. Hers was a life ot useful service, one that was crowned with full fruition. Her work now being finished here and the plans of the Master for her earthly sojourn being perfected, she was called up higher to receive the reward of the faithful. For several years, owing to the failure of her strength, Mrs. Bla lock has spent most of her time quietly at home, but in the active years of her life she was a perma nent factor in the social and religi ous life of the community. She possessed a competency, and travel ed much in her early life, which in addition to her inherent qualities of mind and heart, gave har great breadth and a wide vision of life. She was unusually bright and in teresting as a conversationalist. Mrs. Blalock was a woman of splen did poise and unusual strength of mind. This was evidenced by the very excellent manner in which she managed her large estate after the death of her husband many years ago. Mrs. Blalock's devotion to her son with whom she made her home was beautiful. Whatever engaged his attention always received from her the most cordial support. Af ter he became a member of the Knights of Pythias ani the Odd Fellows she took a deep and abid ing interest in the success of these orders. Those who have been initiated into the ranks of these fra ternal organizations were not more loyal to them than she was. Mrs. Blalock always sympathized with and encouraged Mr. Blalock in his ministerial work. She was his con stant companion in the home, spend ing much of the time reading and aiding him in his researches. She shared his crosses and trials as well as his joys. Mrs. Blalock was a devout Chris tian woman, and always contributed generously of her means for the support of the gospel. In addition to contributing liberally to the cur rent expenses of her church, she also had a large part in promoting the various causes of benevolence. For many years she has been an ac tive member of the First Baptist church at this place, in which the funeral was conducted Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock, Dr. M. D. Jeffries officiating. Mrs. Blalock leaves one son, Rev. P. P. Blalock, and one daugh ter, Mrs. M. C. Parker. No. 666 For Chills and Fever. This is a prescription prepared es pecially for Chills and Fever.
