A YOUNG LIfE GOES OUT. <
Death of Miss Annie Amelia Rooke, a \
Young Lady of Maoy Attractions, s
Departed this life, Miss An- e
nie Amelia Ilooke, at the resi- c
dence of Mr J A G'ockfield, I
Johnsonville, S C., on Friday 1
evening-, May 17, 1907, at 8 o'- '
clock. t
<Viqco irnrdc .in- '

nounce only a common-place, c
everyday occurrence,?a death: ^
to our people of Lake City, to '
the people of Johnsonville and 5
to all who know and understand,
they proclaim something'
far more than that?a sad cal- '
amity. These words tell to the '
latter of the snapping of a '
thread that, all golden, of '
softest weave and brightest
sheen, woven in and out and
' I
through the web and woof of 1
our lives made richer the entire 1
fabric of our being, and whose ;
breaking lea\es a rent so sad '
that only the shuttle of potable
gold forged in the sun's red
heart by Divine force can mend
and weld again. Miss Rooke
was one of those to whom the
name of "gentlewoman" applies
so aptly and forcefully. Of a
"spirit so gentle and quiet that
it blushed at its own motion,"
yet with that dignity and selfprossession
that command respect,
and that force of character
which, without proclaiming
its presence, makes itself felt
and appreciated in no uncertain
manner or extent. She was a
Christian. Of this there is no
doubt, unless Christanity be
false. If there is virtue in
truth, sincerity, obedience to
command, devotion to duty,)
i charity and love of the Master
?if there is reward for those
whose lives are filled with these
then has her life, though short,
been a tremendous success and
her future an assured tiiumph.
Miss Rooke was the eldest
daughter of Rev and Mrs T J
nrl urac in thf? Tirime of
ivvTvnv uuu ?* uu ? w L
young womanhood. Her mind,
naturally bright, was well
trained and disciplined and her
countenance and general demeanor
proclaimed her inteligence
and the splendid character
behind her gentle dignity.
Evenly tempered, but not a cipher;
energetic, but not selfassertive:
deeply religious, but
, not dogmatic?a well rounded.
" symmetrical wholesome cbarac{
ter.
She was a school teacher a4d
- a good one too, especially for
the little folks whom she was
* peculiarly fitted to train in
mind and heart. On account of
her health, which was delicate
from childhood, she carried on
> her work in a private kindergarden.
But two years ago she
.was persuaded to accept a position
in the Johnsonville graded
school, which position she
held ai her death, and how she
endeared herself to those people
was proclaimed louder than
the shouts of a multitude by
their anxious solicitude for her
welfare when she was suffering, j
j their tireless ministrations to
her comfort, amd their ceaseless
efforts to do something for her
as her life blood ebbed away;
and by their presence, and tender
aid and hearty sympathies
in it all and through it all until
the last sob of the departing
mourners was borne over the
mound beneath which she
sleeps.
The remains were brought
here Saturday afternoon under
an escort from Johnsonville and
the funeral services took place
Sunday at 11 a m at 1 lie Baptist
church conducted by Kev J w
Bishop,' the pastor. Though
notice was but poorly given seldom
has such a concourse gathered
in this county over a
grave. It was almost a throng.
And of those thus gathered
there were perhaps two hundred
or more from Johnsonville
twenty-live miles away. And
why this gathering? Why all
these people from near and
far! These children with blanch.
:d cheeks and white flowers;
:hese women with hushed whis)ers
and tearwet eyes; these
strong men with hallow voic;s
and choking sobs over the:oflin
of a little w-onan? Obr
msser bye! There must have
>een that in the life of that
ittle woman which dweJt be:ween
the tips of the wings of .
he angels of the Ark of the
:ovenant but now iives in the
learts of those whom Mirza saw
icross the river, neath the cool
shades aDd by clear waters.
The pall bearers were Messrs
Douglas Venters, Kirkland
L'ockfield, Bascomb C'ockfield,
Norval Newell, Willis T Lee
and Clinton Cannon, all of
Johnsonville.
Whence comes such a life as
this! There'are those who
knew, and who shall say them
a ay? Not one when the angel
shall cry: "Time is; time was,,
but time shall be no more."

A Fellow Teacher's Tribute.
!.
The hearts of our people are
bowed down with sadness and'
grief, for the angel of death
come withmour midst and rob-v?v
V ^
bed us of one of our fairest
jewels. Miss Annie Rooke
passed away on Friday evening,.
May 17, at the home of Mrs J A
Cockfield. Everything within,
the power of medical science
and attention was done for her,
but it was evident from the
tirst that death was waiting to
receive her.
Miss Rooke had been connected
with our school for the past
two yeats and during that time
she won the respect, admiration
and love of all the people.
The school children loved her
for her quiet, gentle manners
and the older ones carried to
her their joys and sorrows, assured
of sound advice and a
sympathetic ear. One heartbroken
mother said to me with
tears streaming down her
cheeks and with her voice choked
with emotion: "Oh, I did
so much hope that we would not
lose her, for I wanted to send
my children to her next year."
"Oh, Miss Rooke, you have
builded better than you knew*"4
Miss Rooke did not fear deathShe
was conscious up thevery
moment of her death, and .
was fully aware of her condition
and yet showed no siga&r
of fear,for she was sustained by jjg
a perfect faith in ber God. In
her own words Christ was tQ
her "a reality, not au idea,"
And yet she did not want to
die. She wanted to live for her
people, for the good that she
I 1/1 rt r\ ftlzam A 4
vvuiu viv viiv.in ill lur llulv oliC
took sick we were just beguiling
to prepare for commencement
and she was very anxious
for its success. On the day of
her death, while at her bedside,
she said to me: "I suppose
you are making great preparations
for commencement." "No,
Miss Rooke,"said I, "we are
making no preparations whatever."
"Oh, I'm so sorry that
I interfered," was her ^nswer.
Oh. .Miss Rooke, always unmindful
of self, even whei*
your body is racked with pain
and when your breath comes in
gasps.
On Saturday a large number
of friends followed her body to
her former home in Lake City.
It was a hot. drv' and dustv dav
and this added to our gloom.
We reached Lake City just as
the shades ot night were beginning
to close in upon the earth
at about the same time of her
death the evening before.
Her body was buried in the
Baptist cemetery at Lake City
on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock.
It was appropriate that the
hoys from the school in which
she served so faithfully should
rkijrfnrm f lid locf curl rlnf if
1VI IU kliv k OUU WUWJ WV
her remains; and Kirkland
Cockfield, Bascomb Cockfield,
Willie Tom Lee, Clinton Cannon,
Douglas Venters and NorvaL
Newell acted as pall bearers.
Our sympathy is extended to
the father, mother and sisters.
May they be comforted by the
thought thatsheis now at rest;
and that the spirit has conquered
the llesh. and is now in
its eternal resting place, where
there is no more sickness, sorrow
or death, and "where the
wicked cease from troubling,
and the weary are at rest."
' O M Chapman.
