On Sunday night, April 7, death entered our midst and claimed L. A. Pennington, aged 51 years old. He had been sick five days with that dreaded malady, meningitis. He suffered much, how much we cannot realize, but he bore it all with gentle patience. All was done for him that living hands could do, but nothing could stay the icy hand of death. He will be greatly missed at home and church.He was a noble Christian, a member of the Methodist Church for 28 years, and was a leader in church work, being a Steward for 15 years. He was laid to rest in Post Oak Cemetery Monday at three o'clock. The funeral services were held at the cemetery by Rev. A. C. Lackey and W. L. Griffin.
