Obituary-Maryette Lee, infant daughter of Charles W. and Rose L. Barnes, died Friday morning, June 2, 1899, at 10:20 o'clock after an illness of but twenty-four hours. Born, September 19, 1898, She never knew what sin in any form was, nor suffered a minute from pain, from her birth till her fatal illness. With a disposition and a face as bright and sweet as a sunbeam when it shines on the dewy roses on a cloudless summer morning, she taught a love so pure and innocent that those who saw her felt the invisible lesson. Those who knew her loved her dearly, and her short life was not clouded by a single sorrow but was a happy and sweet as it was short and pure, making the parting to her devoted relatives one of the bitterest of life. The funeral ceremonies were held in the Episcopal church, Saturday afternoon, June 3, at 4 o'clock. Rev. Howard Stoy, rector, officiating. Rev. W.J. Turner of the Congregational church assisting. Her remains were interred in Riverview cemetery. Friday 9 June 1899
