BESSIE LUTES

On July II, 1908, Bessie Lutes,
the only daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. T. Lutes, came into this world.
On December ~, 1917, at about two
o'clock a. m. she fell quietly asleep
in the arms of death. She lived in
the flesh just 9 years. 5 months, and
7 days. The funeral services were
conducted the next day by w. j.
Hudspeth, the minister of the
Christian Church, assisted by Bro
Their Haas, of the Methodist Church,
andsBrother English, of the Baptist
Church.
A large audience of weeping and
sympathizing friends gathered at the
residence on West Chestnut Street
to atten6 the services. Every part
of the service was impressive. The
quartette, composed Of Misses Grace
Cornelius and jameson, Professors
Rigby and Phalen, sang the beauti-
full song, Sometime Well Under
stand" Brother Haas gave an i'm
pressive talk, followed by prayer.
The quartette sang by Cool Siloam's
Shady Rills." Brother Hudspeth
read some quite appropriate selec-
tions found in ii Samuel, 1853,
and in III Kings, 4:i8-37, from which
he made a very impressive talk,
closing with a brief comment OH
some Of the noble traits of charac-
ter of little Bessie.
She was an Industrious and Obedi-
ent child with studious habits, be-
sides a mother to her two younger
brothers, Henry Mason and w. T. Jr.
She was always ready to help Henry
in his studies. and quite often rock
ed her little brother, w. T. Jr., 10
sleep at night and with motherly
hands would put him to bed.
The talk made by Brother Huds-
peth was all the more impressive
because he had laid away TO rest
the remains Of four infant children
and one grown daughter. When the
remains of little Bessie were lying
in the open casket, one could but
be impressed with solemn reflec-
tions as in her arms was fondly en-
brace1 one of the little dolls.
Her lifeless form was all but
covered with beautiful flowers,
some OF which were presented by
her loving sclfoolmates, with a beat
tiful boquet Of carnations presented
by one OF her classmates, by whom
she was much loved.
The services at the residence were
concluded by a precious and touch !
ing prayer by Brother English. fol-
lowed by the singing by the quar-
tette OF the song, Safe in the Arms
OF Jesus"
The Pail Bearers were Waldo
Wiley, w. II. Duncan. Robert Dur
can and Scott T. MCGUIRE,
At the cemetery Brother Huds-
Deth pronounced the last benedic-
ton, committing all that's earthly
OF little Bessie 10 the Grave TO await
the Trumpet Call Of our Lord when
we shall arise from the sleep OF
death 20 ever be with the Lord.
