"Mrs. Cordelia Henson died at the age of 59 years and Mrs. Ellen
Galloway died at the age of 68 years.
"God's officer came to these good homes and claimed two of Barren
county's best Christian women. They loved their God, home and
country.
"Mrs. Henson's own beautiful flowers were used as a token of love
to her husband and friends and Mrs. Galloway likewise scat[t]ered
flowers along the pathway of her friends.
"Well do we remember one time Mrs. Galloway pinned a red rose on a
friend and said, "This is a [t]oken of love."
"To know these two women was to love them, and one's own life was
bettered by having know[n] them and we commend those who have lost such
good friends to the God of all Comfort and may His Grace be ever near
unto you in your lonliness.
"They leave behind, besides their husbands, five sisters and three
brothers: Mrs. M. J. Edwards, Randolph; Mrs. Leres Tomlin, Wisdom; Mrs.
J. O. Piper, who lives in the west[e]rn part of Kentucky, Mrs. J. A.
Browning, Glasgow; Mrs. E. . Smith; Mr. J. A. Runyon, Glasgow; Mr.
Alford Runyon and Mr. Be Runyon of Illinois."
