IN MEMORIAM
Mrs. Lula Virginia May Smith, wife of Joseph P. Smith, of Aden, departed this life February 23, 1915, at the age of 22 years, 4 months and 14 days. She was the youngest of five children born to William and Sallie May. She was married about five years ago and leaves a son, about two years old. Her mother died three years ago. Her father, husband, one brother, Grover May, of Washington; three sisters, Mrs. Lillie Bear and Mrs. Blanch Runion, of Rockingham, and Mrs. Carrie Hirely, of Aden, with many other friends are left to mourn.
The funeral was preached by her pastor, Rev. J. W. Brill, in the Aden U. B. Church, and the body was laid to rest in the Valley View cemetery. She was much loved by all and much respect was shown by the large attendance at the funeral. A lovely child, a faithful wife, a noble character and kind friend has gone to her reward. May the Good Lord bless and comfort the bereft ones. J. W. B.
