and homes, as has been donc by the
Heath of Mrs. Irene Bloomfield and
Mrs. Louisa Cowan.
Louisa Mckay was born In Greene
county, Miss, Oct. 7, 1929. She was
married IN 1919 TO VIM. j. Evans.
She was married, a second time, Nov.
10 1852, to Oliver c. Cowan. Died
April |, 1889.
Fairly IN life, she united with The
Church, Of which her first
husband was a member. After her
marriage with Mr.. Cowan she be-
came a member Of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, Mr.. Cowan be-
lug a member Of that Church.
Upon her removal to Moss Point,
years ago, she transferred her
membership to the Presbyterian
Church in this place, of which she
was a consistent and beloved member
until the day Of her death.
Mrs. Cowau was of quiet, unassum-
irg nature, a faithful friend, a loving
wife and a devoted mother.
She loved the Church and its ordi-
anc and was always glad to take
part in its worship when her health
permitted her TO be present.
A little while before her death, she
expressed herself as trusting in the
atoning merits of her Lord, and IN ali
her protracted sickness and suffering,
she was cheerful and bright Cooking
not at the things which are seen, but
at the things which are unseen and
eternal"
She passed out of this life and en-
tered the life beg ond, relying on that
Savior, whom she had tried to serve
through life.
May God sanctify this sore bereav-
ment 10 the eternal welfare of her chill
dren aud loved ones. And may they
each be kept by the power of God
through faith, and enabled to fight a
good fight and FFfinish their course
with joy" as she has finished hers.
