"MARY BRIAN HALL -- Little Hall Girl Claimed by Death

"Little Mary Brian Hall, 3 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Hall, died at the home of her parents Saturday, August 14, as a result of a complication of diseases.

"She was the granddaughter on her mother's side of the late Patton and Mollie Williams and on her father's side of Judge and Mrs. J. Melvin Hall.

"The funeral was held Monday afternoon at the home of her Grandfather Hall and was conducted by the Rev. W. L. Canter and the Rev. Burns Conley. The burial took place in the Davis family cemetery near her home.

"The floral offering was one of the largest and most beautiful ever seen which showed the high esteem in which she and her parents are held.

"The background of the child's life was so different from many children. She was brought up by a Christian father and a Chirstian mother whose whole desire was to bring her up in the fear and the admonition of the Lord. They taught her to say her little prayer each night, to return thanks at the table and to go to Sunday School and to say verses from the Bible. Because of her sweet disposition, she made friends wherever she went. It is so hard to give up a child who is thoughtful and affectionate as Mary Brian, but Jesus said, 'Suffer little children to come unto Me and forbid them not for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.' She was the bright and Morning Star of this home. Now she is an Angel in Heaven awaiting the coming of her dear loved ones."
