DEATH AT NEUVILLE
Mrs. J.T. Wilson
E.P. Boles was here from Neuville Monday to get a casket for the remains of Mrs. J.T. Wilson, who died Sunday night at 8'clock.
Mrs Wilson had been ill for about four weeks with typhoid fever. The remains were interred at the Clever Creek graveyard yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, which arrangement, Mr. Boles said, had been announced by the family. Deceased was 32 years of age and is survived by her husband and five children.
She was a splendid woman and loved by all who knew her. The death created profound sorrow in that community and The Champion joins the many friends and relatives of the family in extending sympathy to the bereft husband and motherless children.

IN MEMORY OF MRS. JIM WILSON
Whereas it has pleased our Heavenly Father to call our beloved sister, Mrs. Jim Wilson, from this life to that beyond.
She was born June 24, 1883 and died Sept. 19, 1915. Her presence in our church for the past 18 years has been a source of strength and inspiration. She professed faith in Christ in 1897, and was baptized by Bro. M.M. Strickland. She identified herself with the Baptist Church at Center Ridge. Later she united with the church at Clever Creek.
She leaves a devoted husband, five small children, three brothers, two sisters and a host of friends to mourn her untimely death.
Our heartfelt sympathy extends to her loved ones and we pray God's blessings on them.
Sister Wilson was a good Christian woman, always ready to do what she could for her Savior. We regret to give her up, but we know she has gone to be with the Angels in Heaven to sing around the throne which is prepared for all God's children. We are sure her loved ones take comfort in the fact that she served her Lord faithfully and gave Him first place in her life.
We cherish her memory a Christian of beautiful Christly character, as a mother of loving devotion to her family, as a wife a ceaseless help and cooperation with her husband.
Bro. S.P. Johnson conducted her funeral services at Clever Creek, which was attended by a large concourse of relatives and friends.
