The whole town was shocked on Thursday morning on account of the sudden death of Mrs Corine B Jenrette, wife of Mr N P Jenrette, vice president of the Citizens Bank, at home on College avenue. Mr and Mrs Jenrette with their two small children came to Blackshear only a few months ago during which time they have made many friends who sympathize with the bereaved husband and children in the loss of the wife and mother. Mrs Jenrette was Miss Corine Barnhill and was born in BlulTton, S. C. Quite early in life she connected herself with the Methodist church at Hubert, (la., with which church she alliliated at tne time of her death. 1 The devotion of the deceased to her husband and children was noticeable to those who knew her even slightly. She made many friends. Her ambition was to have a permanent home where with her husband and children around her she could pass her days. 1 On Tuesday an operation was performed on her which although necessary was not considered serious. Iier condition on Wednesday and even Thursday morning was thought to be favorable bub only a short while before her death a rapid change sot in which resulted fatally in a few minutes All was done for her that humanIcrton.L-i nit /?mild hn flnnn Fvhnrl I J U v vy xyi\ru?/( . m. *4 v? friends were present with their ministrations.

On September 22nd, 1911, the death angel visited the home of Mr and Mrs George 11 Huggins ard took from them their darling litt'e Mary Lee, She was one year and nine days old, she was a bright obedient little child. We know not why she was taken from us so soon, all was done that loving hands could do, but the good Lord knew best. In the presence of a host of sorrowing relatives and friends, her rema ns were interred in the /ion Cemetery Saturday evening Sept ember 23rd. Oh why is it dear darling you've lift us, And gone to that Heavenly shore, \There Angles are singing and calling Where sickness and deaths are nu more, Alone in this world wo are travel ing, Each day thinking of you', How long will it be till we follow, Our sweet darlings love to renew. Yes on the dark billows we're waiting, For a glimpse of the beautiful land When we shall be piloted over, By our dear loving Savior's hand. We miss you dear darling we miss 1 you s We are lonely away from your side, 1 But in that fair land we will join i you, And there ever more we will abide . Her Loving Parents. 111.
