Mrs. Baldwin Dead.

On Monday morning Nov. 29th,
1920, Mrs. Belle Rush Baldwin
fell asleep in Jesus.
She was a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. William Martin Rush, of
Montgomery county, where she
spent most of her days. She
married Mr. Thomas Baldwin; to
this union was added seven chill
dren, namely, Mesdames Gris5um
Johnson, of Mt. Gilead, Mrs. Ola
Smith, of Rockingham, Mr.. Ollie
Baldwin, Miss Lizzie Baldwin,
Edwin Baldwin, of Roberdel, and
Mr.. Fred Baldwin, who is now
in the U. S. Navy.
Mrs Baldwin suffered a great
deal for several years, but was as
patient and submissive as anyone
could be. Everything was done
that loving hands could do but
to no avail. She realized her
time was short and asked them
not to grieve after her: she was
only going to live with Jesus.
When entering her room she
would turn and greet you with
a smile, though in an agony of
pain. You could see the angelic
expression on her face.

1t is hard to give her up but
we must bow in submission to

we'll. She was a devoted com.
panion, a loving, tender mother,
and a friend to all. To know her
was to love her; our loss is her
eternal gain. We know she can

Our heartfelt sympathy goes out
