DEATH OF MS. EFFIE c. ARco
Tribute Is Paid This Good Woman by
Friend

FRIEND
Mrs. Effie Argo, nee Cocker was born
in Sumter county Georgia May 8, 1878
and died at the old home August 80,
1905. She was married to William Ar
go December %, 1897. To this union
but one child survives, little Roy. now
six years of age, and perhaps no moth
er has ever had a more thoughtful
obedient son, and no child more ten
der ard sff,ctionate mother. Her
married life was comparatively short,
but full of love and true womanly
faithfulness. she entwined herself
about the heart strings of her husband
and little boy by such purity of life
and unselfish devotion as will cause
them to miss her loving companion
ship OH so sadly. She was a con-
sistent member of the Baptist church
at Plains, and had developed beauti-
full symmetrical Christian character.
always loving the pure. the beautiful
and also the good. Her love to her
family and church was exceedingly
beautiful. She was q brave true wife
tender mother-a kind neIghbor-s
compassionate friend. Sadly will she
be missed in the home in the church,
and in the community. Kind hands
and loving hearts did all they could to
prolong ner precious life, but the fat
had gone forth; ''It is enough; come
up higher"
lis hard for US to realize that love IS
back of the hand that separates, but
lbye and bye the night of sorrow will
pass and the morn of Joy be ushered
in. Some time before her death she
had a dream or vision of heaven in which
she was told tolwait and be faithfuI-to
abide her time She was perfectly re-
signed to the will of God and bore her
sufer rings with patience and christian
fortitude and having committed her
self into Gods keeping. She had no
fear of death, but spoke of it calmly
and asked her husband to raise their
little boy right and meet her in Heav-
en-. tbs the verdict of those who know
her best "a good woman has fallen
asleep" May husband and son and
the dear bereaved ones follow the mas
ter closely and some bright day be
prepared to dwell with her in the
beautiful home to which she has gone.
