The funeral services for Mrs. J. A.

The services were conducted by Rev. J. E. Ingle, pastor of the Baptist Church, who was assisted by Rev. M. E. Hansel and Rev. D. A. Lewis. Mr. Ingle in a brief talk spoke of the virtue of patience, of which Mrs. Dalton's life was a beautiful example, bearing all sickness with sweet patience. "Heaven," said Mr. Ingle "is a land of perfection, where there is no sickness and suffering, and those who have made life sweet on earth, are taken to heaven to make heaven sweet." Mrs. Dalton is survived by her husband, two daughters, Mrs. J. W. Graham of Old Fort and Mrs. I. W. Saunders of Marion, and one son, William Dalton, of Old Fort. A large crowd of relatives and friends attended the last rites of this good mother and neighbor. The funeral services were concluded at the Old Fort cemetery.²
