Death of George W. Lang
The subject of this sketch, George W. Lang, son of J.C. Lang, died of typhoid fever at his father's residence five miles east of Magnolia, Jan. 15, 1910, aged 26 years 9 months and 6 days.
He was married to Miss Lula Phelps, Dec. 25, 1899, and the fruit of their union is five children all of whom survive him, but the oldest son Hughy, in now hovering between life and death with the same dread disease.
Brother George professed religion and joined the Baptist church in childhood, but drifted far away from God. A few years since he was convicted of sin and claimed to have gotten full salvation and his life deportment and consecration verified his claim, having been faithful up to the final summons to come up higher. A while before he became unconscious, he counseled his loved ones not to weep for him, that all was well, with not a shadow or doubt in the way.
He leaves his own family consisting of a wife and five children; a father, mother, two brothers and five sisters to mourn their loss, which is his eternal gain.
After a funeral service conducted by this writer, his body was laid to rest in the Union cemetery just as the sun was sinking beneath the western horizon the same day of his decease.
May God comfort the bereaved and verify his promise to be a "Father to the fatherless and a husband to the widow," is our earnest prayer.
