Pigeon Creek

Mrs. Arthur Holloway, nee Miss Abbie Bass who had been sick for the past three weeks
with typhoid pneumonia, and at one o'clock on Wednesday morning the summons came
for her to go Home to Glory and to dwell with Jesus and all the other loved ones who had
gone on before. She was a member of the Missionary Baptist Church. She was 43 years
of age. Burial took place at Mount Pleasant Home Church cemetery March 6th, Rev.
Robert Merrell officiating. She is survived by a heart broken husband and a number of
small children. It was so hard for them to give her up. Jesus said he would never leave
thee or forsake thee. Only trust Him. This death occurred just over in Crenshaw County.
There is a good deal of sickness in that neighborhood. Reporter extends sympathy for
the bereaved family.
