In Memoriam.

ANDERSON, g. c., Dec. II, 1897.
The many friends Of Miss Annie L..
.Thornly were shocked on the morning oil
Dec. 11th, when the news spread over the
city that she was dead. She was but
little over eighteen years old but had
made hosts Of friends.
Annie took advantage ofthe public and
private schools OF the city Of Anderson,
and as soon as age would permit she en-
tered Hartshorn Memorial College, Rich
mond, Va, and pursued the course there
for four years. She was only hindered
course being heightened.
She joined the st. Paul Baptist Church
whom mere child, but was one OF the
most faithful members and met death
with that irmness and calm, Christian
zeal that marked her entire life.
She was loved, trusted and commended
by all who dealt with her. Pastors,
teachers, schoolmates, friends and all
wto knew Annie loved and admired her.
She was modest and unassuming, yet
faithful and expert when any duty was
entrusted to her.
She died in full triumph of faith and
none who knew her doubts that she is
safe with the One she 10 early learned to
love.
We all extend sympathy and ask to be
permitted to share with her parents and
relatives in their grief.
The funeral services were held in the
St Paul Baptist Church Of this city. Rev.
j. C. Jackson, her pastor, assisted by the
other pastor, officiated.
