"Miss Emma A. Blacknall, oldest daughter of the late Col. C. C. Blacknail of Kittrell, N. C, died in Morganton last Friday, and was berried [sic] at Kittrell Saturday. She was in her 46th year. Miss Blacknall was a woman of a bright mind and of great energy and desire to do good in the world. Though always hampered by a frail physique, this desire bore fruit in a long series of good deeds. She was deeply pious and one of the most unselfish of women. Her chief regret was that her want of health enabled her to do so much less for others than she wished to. The burial services were conducted by the Rev. Mr. London of Louisburg Episcopal church, she having for many years been a communicant of that church. Miss Blacknall was the sister of Messrs. O. W. and C. L. Blacknall of Kittrell, W. H. Blacknall of Raleigh, and Mrs. W. A. Adams of Oxford. She was a splendid Christian woman and the Gold Leaf joins in sincere condolence and sympathy on the sad occasion of her death."

Hers was a useful life unselfishly devoted to the service of others.
