The death angel soared around Herndon, VA, and entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Dallas Allcock and took from them their darling baby girl, Jean, who entered the world Friday, November 6th and only stayed until Sunday morning, the 8th. We cannot understand why one so pure and tiny should have to cross over the river, but how precious were those few hours she was in the home. Weep not, dear parents, little Jean is just waiting for us to come to her. Those were such dear moments. God let her loved ones have her. The little body was brought to Forest and laid to rest in the family plot in the cemetery at the Baptist Church. Mr. Peters read a lesson from the scripture and prayed most beautifully and "In the Sweet Bye-and-Bye" was sung. The little body was borne to the grave by Frank Massie, Winston May, Walter Langford and Robert Overstreet. The Flowers were many and beautful and were carried by eight of her aunts, Mrs. Robert Overstreet, Mrs. W.W. Langford, Mrs. Frank Massie, Misses Reva, Myrtle, Sarah and Doris Alcock and Mrs. Ruth Burnette; and two cousins Hilda Langford and Mrs. C.D. Brown and two friends, the Misses Coffee. She leaves father, mother and little brother Raymond and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her loss.
