Died- Last week Mrs. N. C. Forbes was summoned to her eternal home. She had been an invalid many months and suffered untold agonies. She had been a member of Antioch Baptist Church many years and during her long illness she bore the terrible pains with remarkable fortitude, and often expressed a desire to be called to her Maker, where true rest await the weary. She leaves a husband and several children to mourn her death. The news extends profound condolences to the bereaved.
