AN AGED LADY HAS ENTERED INTO REST; MRS. BETTIE BRITTAIN PASSED AWAY WEDNESDAY NIGHT

Last Thursday, shortly before midnight, one of our most beloved aged ladies passed away. At the home of her daughter Mrs. Langley, Mrs. Bettie Brittain, weary from waiting and wasted by suffering, laid down life's burdens and
entered into rest.

Following a long illness, her death was not unexpected, but it was nevertheless a sad loss to her loving children and many devoted friends. The departure of any good woman is a serious loss to the world. But, full of years and resting under the hand of affliction, the call came to Mrs. Brittain as a sweet release.

The deceased was a true type of christian woman. Notwithstanding the burdens and afflictions that came to her lot, she remained bright and cheerful. Her life, like that of every true mother, was one of sacrifice. Doubtless a rich
reward is hers in heaven, while the influence of her character lives on to bless.

Mrs. Brittain was 66 years of age. She was the widow of the late Mr. J.H. Brittain who died fourteen years ago. Most of her useful life was spent in Georgia. The old home was in Houston in Heard County, Georgia where the remains were carried Thursday for interment. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. F.H. Farrington.

Mrs. Brittain was the mother of ten children, six of whom are living. These are as follows:

Mrs. O.J. Dollens, LaGrange, Georgia
A.N. Brittain, Palmetto, Georgia
W.H. Brittain, Roanoke, Ala.
Mrs. A.J. Langley, Roanoke, Ala.
Mrs. Lee Ward, Jacksonville, Ala.
Mrs. W.H. McDaniel, Roanoke, Ala.

A CARD OF THANKS

The family of Mrs. Bettie Brittain take this method of thanking their neighbors and friends for their many kindnesses shown them in the sickness and death of their mother and particularly Dr. Stevenson for his faithfulness. May each one of them be richly rewarded is the prayer of her children.
