Georgia Olivia Brannan- Beard

Intelligence reaches this office oil
the demise on August II, 1907 a
Mrs. Georgia Olivia Beard nee Bran
nan, the wife of j. l.. Beard, and the
oldest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. l.
M. Brannan. She expired at her home
near Shipman Miss, and met her
death in the throes of parturition.
Through the kindness of friend
who stopped with the family the
next day, we are furnished with the
data used in this notice,
The deceased was married to Mr..
BEARD, who is from North Carolina
on Sept. 2, 1906 She had been a con-
sistent member of the Methodist
Church for five years, joining on
Sunday Bird day of Sept, 1902. She
was the de goted daughter of her faith
er and mother and loving he!pmeet
and wife to husband. In the hours
when the threads of life were threat
ened all that skilled physicians and
loving hands could do was done. She
was conscious TO the last, and died in
the beauties of the Christian Faith,
seeming perfectly willing to go at
the Masters Call. She was the idol
of her family and one of the sterling
characters of true womanhOod in the
community fabric. Her death left all
the home sad and lonely, and cast a
pail of sadness over the entire com
munity. Letters of condolerce in
numbers have reached the family
from relatives, friends and acquain-
tances.
Well does the HERALD Editor re-
member this lady when a happy little
maiden in some Of the classes at the
Chronicle School; unless our memory
fools US in the class with our sister,
now Mrs. Fanny Priester, during
our attendance in that institution.
Little did we think then that some
day we would be called upon to pen
her obituary. Our heart goes out in
keen sympathy to the Brannan fam
lily old acquaintance of ours, i'll this
their sad Hour; we are told the first
trial of this kind that has come TO
that household. God alone can COM
fort the human heart through such
anguishing moments. May her loved
ones left here eon earth, determine
to meet her dis she waits for them on
the Holy Strand across the sea that
separates this life from the Beautiful
Country Beyond.
The remains were laid to rest in
the old family grave-y yard at Macedo
MA Church. Almost in the language
employed by the sacred writer in re-
counting the scene at Lazarus grave
when Jesus told him to Come
Forth, can we say that we "Wept "
when this sad, sad news reached us.
May this our last tribute be of cheer
to the dropping hearts.
