Baptist Church Pays Tribute
To L.C.Davis

Death has again cast a gloom over
our community and taken one of
our noblest citizens, Bro. L.C. Davis
He was born April 11, 1845 and
died Aug,27, 1910. He professed
faith in Christ and joined the Baptist
Church in early life.

He stood high in his community as
a citizen and neighbor. None was
more ready to help those in need than
he. If the community needed a man to
stand by his coviction of right, he was
the man to select. If the Church was
in trouble and wanted her members to
stand at the post of duty he was there.
He was not a man seeking popularity ,
but where ever duty called he was never
wanting there. He did not push himself
forward, but in his own quiet way of doing
things, he was a great power for good. He
would resign his position rather than be
forced into doing that which he thought to
be wrong.
He leaves a wife, ten daughters, two sons,
and a host of relatives and friends
to mourn their loss.
Resolved 1st. That we the church have lost
a useful and most faithful member and deacon,
a safe advisor, one that was ever loyal to his
conviction of right.
Resolved 2nd. That we as a church extend our
sincerest sympathy to the bereaved family,
commending them to Him that doeth all things
well, knowing ,"That all things work together for
good to them that love the Lord."
Resolved 3rd That a copy of these resolutions
be given to the family, a copy to be placed in
out records, and one sent to the Walker County
messenger for publication.
