"IN MEMORIAM" In loving remembrance of Mrs. Hannah Lee Morrison. She died as she lived, a true Christian. One by one our loved ones and friends are passing away. Hannah Lee leaves to mourn her death a husband and relatives and a host of friends. The angels lulled her to sleep and she drifted away from the embrace of her loved ones and a host of friends, who have stood by her in sunshine and showers to dwell in that land where abides eternal peace and everlasting joy, where suffering and heartaches are never known and where there is no parting. She was the perfect example of womanhood. Her morals without blemish were ready to help those in need and to greet everyone. She went with a smile, not only in her home. Is there a vacant place, but in her church and Sunday School class. May we let the Savior fill that vacant place and bow in humble submission to the will of Him who doeth all things well. We loved her but the Savior loved her best, and he gently called unto her, Come up higher and rest.
