of Miss Mattie's death was pneumo'
MIA, her depleted condition making
her an easy victim of this dread

illness she received the most devot-
ed attention from friends and loved
ones. She was conscious almost to
the end and faced death calmly and
bravely, putting her trust in her
Saviour whom she accepted in early
girlnood. All of the members Of her
family were with her, Miss Jennie
Pattison, her sister who is teaching
at Elloree, having reached her but a
lew hours before the end.
The funeral WAS conducted at the
residence Tuesday afternoon by her
pastor, DR.. NJ. D. Jeffries, and the
snow white, fower-laden casket was
borne to the grave in our village
cemetery by six of her young
friends. A large number of relatives
