Fair Play, July 3.-Special: On Wednesday, June 28, 1911, at 6.30 a. m., the spirit of Mrs. Floyd B. Watson, of Fair Play, winged its flight back to Ged, v !.o was so kind as to bloss all of us with tho privi lege Of knowing, associating with, and learning what true Christian character ls. Surely, yes truly, if tnore ever lived a woman who loved everybody and who desired to make others cheerful and happy, Theodosia Barton Watson was ono. It seemed to be her desire and purpose to do all tho good sho could, 'to whoever she could, whenever she could. What higher and nobler aim could ono have? No ono was ever known to hear her say ought against any one, and we fully believe her heart was as free from malice and her lips from guile as the heavens aro high over tho earth. Her Christian character, her example, was such that won the admiration of every one she came in contact with. Ob, that dvorybody could be as good as she was! Theodosia Barton was born No vembor 14, 1 874. Her parents were tho late Rev. H. M. and Mrs. S. E. Barton, of this county. At the early age of fourteen sho joined South Un ion Baptist church, and afterwards moved her membership to Beaver dam, at Fair Play, where she labored unceasingly till God called her fora better work In a better world. In ber early womanhood she was a suc cessful teacher in several schools of this county, and everywhere her labors wore spent, kind and gent?o remembrances exist. Sho taught at Westminster and at Fair Play, to the ki, wledge of the'writer, though her labors in tho school room extended beyond these places. On October 16. 1895, sho was uni ted in marriage to Floyd B. Watson, of Anderson county, and unto them were born eight children, one of whom, Joseph Bee, ls dead. Those living are Thelma, Henry, Julia, Gary, William, Francis, and the dear little babe a week old. she leaves to mourn her sad death her husband, chlldron, and mother, Mrs. S. IO. Bar ton; ono brother, Prof. M. C. Bar ton, of Piedmont; a sister, Mrs. W. L. Dobbs, of Fair Play, and a half brother, Willie Glenn, of Mississippi. A host of other relatives and friends extend their sympathy to those who are. so sorely bereaved. On Thursday, June 29, 10.30 a. m., a largo concourso of relatives and friends witnessed tho last sad ritos to this goodly woman. The exercises wero conducted by Rev. A. P. Marott, of Westminster, nsslstod in music by Prof., Durham. Tho floral tributes wero' both numerous and beautiful. It ls hard to realize that we shall seo hor face no moro here below, but thanks bo to God she has passed through the pearly gates and ls now beckoning for us to follow ber to tho land where no sun, no moon, no \derWcrker Process" erside of the innersole faints, not unlike the in ajf?earance and .ss makes the ordinary nd elastic as that cf a hie sole used on a shoe. ? e%"\G i fVi \.<v -.'V\ .VA. ?>JI ?V>K RICHLAND AND HUH SCHOOL.
