Obituary Of Sister j. u. Thomas.

Sister Angelina S. Thomas was born in
Bedford county, Va, February 2, 1922,
and died at her home in Jonesboro, Ten
nessee, August 20, 1885, aged 63 years.
She was the daughter of Rev. Thomas
and Sarah Burson.
At the age of 10 she became a Christian,
and joined the Baptist Church, in her
native county. She was married February
10, 1S47, to ]. B. Thomas who survives
her.
She was at the time of her death, and
had been for many years, an honored and
consistent member Of the Baptist church
of Jonesboro, Tennessee.
In all her relations, sister Thomas was
an illustration Of the ennobling, %sanctify
ing influence Of our holy religion. Sh'
loved her church and her God with tn,
devotion OF q true Christian, and was al
ways happy when permitted to worship
God in his sanctuary. But it was in tn
home that her noblest qualities wer
manifested. She loved her husband an,
her children with the purest devotion o
q wife and a mother. She recognized
to be her highest mission to be a blessin
to her home.
Her pastor t%estifies that he new saw
mother more endeared to the hearts 0
her children, who, be they what the
might elsewhere, were in her presence
only children. She leaves to them tn
richest heritage Of earth-a consister
Christian example.
We recognize that in her the churc
has lost one Of Its best and noblest men
bers, but our loss is her gain, and to 90
be praise. Her pastor,

Last Friday Mr.. Landon Nave living in
the Fifth District near Bashor's Mill was
trimming a beech log about thirty feet
long, which lay on a hillside when he re-
ceived injuries which resulted in his
death the following day. He was alone
at the time and it is supposed that the
accident happened something as follows;
The hillside was steep and the log
seems to have been supported by a single
limb which kept it from rolling. In or
der to cut this limb off 1t was necessary
to put blocking below the log. This it is
thought Mr.. Nave was attempting to do
when the limb, which was found to be
decayed, broke, and the log catching him
| rolled from his head toward his feet over
his body inflicting fatal internal injuries,
The head was but little bruised and none
Of his limbs were broken. When he wal
found he was unconscious, in which con
dition he remained until his death. Med
cal aid was summoned, but his injuries
were beyond its power to relieve.
