"Mrs. Pernetta Summers died at her home near here last Friday. She
had been affected for a long time with heart trouble, and her death was
no surprise to her children and relatives. She realized the fact that
death was likely to come to her at any time, and was fully prepared to
meet the summons. She was a member of the Baptist church and had been
for many years. Her funeral was preached by Rev. J. M. Bruce, after
which she was interred in the family burying ground, near her residence,
in the presence of a large crowd of relatives and friends. Mrs. Summers
was one of the best women in the vicinity in which she lived, and her
death is a great loss to the community. Her excellent family of children
and relatives have the sympathy of all their neighbors and friends in
the time of their great sorrow. She was seventy-two years old at the
time of her death. Having lived out her alloted time on earth, she has
gone to her reward, but her works will live after her. May the sod press
lightly over her grave and the brightest flowers grow around her tomb.
Jay Em."
