On Sebbath morning Sopt 17 1005
the sad noire flashed over the wlros
from Jlt Home Arkansas that Mrs
W II Nichols had died Hint at 020
oclock nd that her rcniainB wouldbe
brought back to Jefferson the home of
the deceased for interment
For many years Mrs Nichols had
been a great siifferor nt times but boro
nil of her nfllictions with with thnt
christian patience so beautiful in the
lives of those who have caefr their bur
dett on the Lord
It wrb a great psnsuro and source of
strengh to her paitor to see her each
timo a he visited her suffering to see
her display all the christian graces
nithont a murmur of complaint at her
lot
It was with deepest regret and sad-
ness of heart that wo learned of her
death
Itwan thought by her devoted sons
and many friends thnt the chnnge from
the climate oo Jeflerson to that of Mt
Homo Ark would benefit horand pro-
long her life but disease had preyed
upon the vital organs of her body too
long to staud its ravages any longer
Death wns a relief to the weary sufferer
as it came to translate her from earths
sorrows tojheavens joys
None of her sons wero able to roach
her before the end came came but her
affectionate daughterinlaw Mrs Bass
Nichols and Mr and Mrs Matt Mose
ley rendered all the comfort and ser-
vice possible
All was dono by ber loving sons and
dauglitersinlaw that could be for their
loved one and they have the consola-
tion of knowing tbatthey did their best
for theirbeloved mother
