Deaths

Mrs. Rachel A. Woods, and AGED
resident of the Mill Gap section Of
Back Creek, died at the home OF
her son, ]. H. Woods, at an early
hour Tuesday morning.
She had been i'll for several
months, an attack of pneumonia
early in the winter resulting in
complications.
Mrs. Woods was about'72 years
of age and the widow of Peter
Woods whose death occurred in
April, 1918. Of the children sur
viving-three of them all live in
the Mill Gap community. They
are Mrs, Robert Wiley, Mrs. Mat
tie Townsend, and J. H. Woods
with whom size made her nome.
Mrs. Woods was a consistent
member of the M. E., church. and
lady held in high esteem by
nrighbors and friends.
Funeral services were conducted
at Green Hill church Wednesday
morning by her pastor, Rev. G. B.
Rutledge, after which interment
took place in the nearby cemetery
Paul, the ten-months old child
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. H. PuIliu,
whose illness was mentioned last
week, died on Monday evening.
The little fellow had apparently
rallied from an attack of double
pneumonia but other troubles
developed and the unequal contest
resulted in a victory for the grim
reaper.
As stated last week, little Paul
was a twin, the larger and more
robust of the two, and had reached
that interesting age when childish
prattle and laughter trengthen the
cords of parental affection and add
cheer and happiness to the home.
The bereaved parents are as
sured o. the sympathy Of their
friends and neighbors Interiment
took place Tuesday afternoon fol-
lowing an appropriate service at
the house. conducted by Rev. }.
G. Thrashe1.
