Respected Colored Woman Dies.
—v
On Tuesday, the 19th inst, Barn
well witnessed one of the largest col
ored funerals it has seen for a long
time; it was the funeral of Dora A.
Green, a useful and respected colored
woman. She died on Sunday, the 17th,
after an illness of several months.'
She was known as a splendid nurse
and served both races in her chosen
avocation up to the time when the
doctor advised her to “stay at home
and rest,” as she needed that above
any medicine.
Coming from St. Louie, Missouri,
here with her parents, Henry and
Laura Brown, the father as s minis
ter, many years ago, she soon be
came the wife c4 Jefferson Green, a
faithful deacon of the. Bethlehem
Baptist Church. For 37 years they
lived together happily and their lives
have blessed the community. In her
death Barnwell has lost a useful citi
zen. N.
She was a member cf the Household
of Ruth, the Court of Calaf«he a and
a former officer of the Missionary So
ciety of the Bethlehem Church, of
which she w» a loyal member.
The sermon was delivered by Rev.
A. Chas. L. Arbouin, A. B., pastor of
the church, from the text: “Precious
in the sight of the Lord is the death
of Hia Saints,” Fs. 116:15, and was
considered a splendid tribute to the
departed saint.
She leaves to mourn lodt' a hus
band, a stater, sever children—four
boys Mid three'girls, and a host of
frietais. Peace to her ashes and “may
her tribe increase.”—Contributed.
