The "grim reaper" claimed for his
own on January 3, 1903, the soul of
little Florrie Bell, the infant of Mr.
and Mrs. George Rawl, aged 7
months and 13 days.
The fond parents had left it alone
just a few moments, thinking it
would remain where they had left it,
and it had moved and to their
horror found it in the fire. The little
creature lived until the next night,
when it succumbed to the fatal acci
dent.
The funeral was conducted at the
home by Rev. George S. Bearden
and the body interred in the family
grave yard near by.

the entire community in their bereavement.

The rain fall last Sunday was rob
