DININNY.
The announcement of the death o1
MRS. FANNIE DININNY was not only a
great shock to the family, but to the
community, and to her numberless
friends.

the Methodist Episcopal Church. She
has therefore given over 16 years Of
her life to the service of the Lord, join
ing the church when but 13 years o.
age.
On the Goth of last June she was
married to Mr.. Owen Dininny. Sever
months and 20 days from that merry
time, she bid her husband of earth
farewell, to go and meet the Heavenly
Bridegroom in the air.
If there ever was lady in our com
munity who illustrated in her life the
full fruition othigh Christian character
it was our deceased sister. She was &
member of the Methodist Episcopal
Church for more than 16 years, but she
always had wider view of Christian
ity than mere denominational limita
tions.
On Sunday, Feb. 10th, at O'Clock
p. m., the Angel of God, who smott
Peter in prison, appeared and touched
her and said, SISTER" "young wife,
''child of God" "thy work is done
follow me-" The clay casket was left
and out of it she awakened in the very
presence of Jehovah, while the glory
of God met her astonished gaze.
Could we have had our way we would
have kept her with us little longer
but the curtain has dropped; sometime
over yonder we shall know why.
Those who knew her best loved he
most.

and mother of deceased, have lost thei
only daughter, the two brothers, Roy
and Claude E., have lost a loving sister
the husband has lost a devoted wife
