DIES In
SOUTHLAND
Mrs. Thomas D. Jones Passes Away
Sunday at Her Home in
Tampa, Fla.

The news of the death of Mrs.
Thomas d. Jones came over the
wires Sunday as a shock barbed
with pain and sorrow. For several
weeks past those near and dear to
her knew the end was approaching
and had tried to resign themselves
to the loss they knew was coming
and to bow their heads in humble
submission to the will of God. Mrs.
Jones was bolin March 10, 1868,
and was therefore past her fifty-
third year. On September "a,
1884, she was married to Mr..
Thomas d. Jones and they lived
here until December, 1907, when
they moved to Tampa, Ela Fla, w ~hsssFTo
they have since resided. Their
union was blessed with three sons,
Raymond, Kelly and Nelson, and
one daughter, Miss Mary Bruce, all
of whom survive her. Her brother,
Mr.. r. M. Trimble, of this city, has
been at her bedside for more
than a week. She has been practi-
cally an invalid for several years
and had been confined to her bed
for the past six months. Deceased
was a great church worker, having
been a member of the Methodist
church for many years. She was
also an ardent w. C. T. IT, worker
and in spite of her poor health
never ceased to labor for the cause
of her Lord and Master.
No bronze or marble shaft, no
splendor Of, ancient> ora modern
tombs and no play of immortal
genius can adorn the memory Of
such women. Their lives, their
deeds, their influence, living or
dead, and their pure aspirations
are the monuments that will keep
their names burning in the home
and the hearts of kindred and
brethren, yhile the flying moments
are dimming with their dust and
rust the inscription upon the bright
est obelisk in the cemetery. While
the silence of death wraps and
chills us at this moment, memories,
sweet and precious, come crowding
in.
Mrs. Jones, besides her husband
and children. is survived \ by her
father, Mr.. j. G.. Trimble, who Is
in his Oath year, and eight brothers
and sisters: Miss Ella O. Trimble,
of this city; Mrs. Mary Greenwade,
of Illinois; Mrs. j. T. Day, of
Hazel Green; Mrs. Nancy Holly, Of
New York; Messrss j. g., of Gin
cinnati, o.; N. H., R. M. and B. w.
Trimble, of this city. This is the
first death in their family since De-
cember %, 1891, when Mrs. Trimble
was called to her reward.
The remains were brought to this
city Monday afternoon and taken
to the home of her father on East
Main street. Funeral services were
conducted at the Methodist church
this afternoon by Rev. f. l.. South
gate, with burial in Machpelah Gem
etery. Words of coincidence seem
to fail us in trials and sorrows like
this, we can only look into the faces
of these good friends and say your
sorrow is our sorrow, put your
trust in Him who is able to give
you surcease from sorrow.
