BARFOOT - Died. January 30, 1897, JOHN E. BARFOOT, in the 42.1 year of his age.
Deceased leaves a wife and five children to mourn their loss.

Human hands have tried to save him;
Sighs and tears were all in vain;
Happy angels came and bore thee
From this weary world of pain;
Fold the weary bands together,
Close the soft and dreamy eyes;
See, how like a broken lily,
Pale and beautiful he lies.

The funeral took place from Pine Street Baptist church Monday afternoon, February 1st, at 3:30 o'clock.
