Obituary..

In memory of sister Lee, the
wife of James AntIe and the
daughter of ]. ]. Turner, was
born Sept, 10, 1875 and died at
New Albany, Ind, Apr, 6 1914.
She was converted and joined
the United Brethren church at
the old home church, Oak Grove,
in her 14th year. She was mar
ried to James Antle Nov, %,
1891. She was the mother of s
children. A few years ago they
got their house and all its con-
tents burned up, but that was
not the worse of it, one of their
little girls was burned up in the
house. This gave the mother
such a shock she never did fully
recovered from it. Her health
began to fail and finally died with
consumption. She died in full
faith in her Savior, She leaves
behind a husband, several chill
dren, father, brothers and one
sister to mourn but not as those
that have no hope. Goodbye
sister Lee for awhile for you was
always one of my pets. Now
friends look to your blessed Saw
Tor for comfort He will be with
you unto the end. God bless
all. Amen.

the only reasonable hope regard
