DEATH: MRS. ALMA O'QUINN DIED AT HOME

Nahunta, Ga., May 1, 1936. Mrs. Alma O'Quinn Brown died at her home Friday night after a short illness of pneumonia.

Mrs. Brown was 36 years of age, and had lived in Brantley County until several years ago, then moving to Raulerson Chapel, and lived there until her death.

She is survived by her husband, Mr. P. F. Brown, two daughters, Misses Alice and Ruth Brown; three sons, Sterling, Clinton, and Colan. Her father, Mr. J. J. O'Quinn of Racepond, three sisters, Mrs. James Lee of Blackshear; Mrs. Zettie Griffin of Racepond; Mrs. Evie Roberts of Fort Wayne, Ind.; three brothers, Freddie, Clarence, and Cecil O'Quinn of Racepond.

Mrs. Brown was a member of the church of God for several years, and those who knew her best loved her most.

Funeral service was at the Church of God at Raulerson Capel, with burial in Raulerson Cemetery with the Revs. Johnson and Ham, of Waycross, officiating.

She held high ideals for the future and during her last and fatal illness bore her suffering patiently, each day entertaining hopes that she might yet recover. And while she so doubted the wisdom of her Heavenly Father, and express her willingness to submit to the Master's will. God graciously veils the future from our vision, but some day we shall understand, if we have made ample preparations, when the silver cord shall have been severed, and the Grim messenger shall summon us to embark on that out going vessel that shall never return.

I was so very weary, Surely you can not mourn
That I a little sooner, Should lay my burden down.
Then weep not, weep not darling, God wipes away all tears.
'Tis only just a little while Though you may call it years. (By Kate Manning)
