At the home of her father, Dr. W.F. Gray, at Madison, seven miles from this city, Mrs. Annie Gray Lanier, wife of Church S. Lanier, died yesterday morning at 11:30 o’clock. Her illness had been a long and painful o ne, but was borne with Christian fortitude, patience and cheerfulness. The loving ministry of dear ones and friends and the skill of physicians did all that was possible to alleviate her sufferings, but in vain. Converted in girlhood, her life was adorned with the beauty which comes from a devoted loyalty in God’s service, and she won to herself a large circle of friends. She was a devoted wife, a lovely daughter, a fond sister, an ever-true friend. She will be sadly missed in her church and community, but most of all in the old homestead, where her intelligence and refinement were a helpful ministry to every member of it.
Funeral services will be held at Midway Methodist Church Saturday morning at 10 o’clock, conducted by her pastor, Rev. John A. McFerrin.
