Little Helen Lou was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Craig and her little affectionate smiles will be missed greatly by them and all who knew her. She leaves to mourn her loss her father, mother, two grandfathers, grandmothers, also aunts, uncles and other relatives.

Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church Saturday at 2:30 a.m. conducted by Rev. Hill. Interment was made in the Table Rock cemetery.

The little crib is empty now
The little clothes laid by,
A mother's hope, a father's joy
In death's cold arms doth lie.
Go, little pilgrim, to thy home
On yonder blissful shore,
We miss you here, but soon will come
Where thou hast gone before.
