NANCY LEE SLADE HEDGEPETH

   Mrs. Nannie Slade Hedgepeth, the beloved wife of Mr. J.B. Hedgepeth of the 
Sedley community, died in Memorial Hospital, Richmond, Sunday, September 4, 
1921, in the fifty-eighth year of her life. The body was brought to her home 
the following day and the funeral services were conducted Tuesday, September 6, 
by Rev. W.B. Fuller of the Ivor Christian Church, assisted by Dr. C.H. Rowland 
of the Franklin Christian Church, and Rev. A.E. Cloud of Corinth Friends Church.

   The deceased was widely loved throughout her home community where she had 
spent her life and had given herself freely for her family, friends and 
neighbors. She was a noble woman of many exemplary and enduring qualities and 
had been since girlhood a faithful and consistent member of Barrett’s Christian 
Church, loyal to the church of her faith and to the teachings of the Master.

   In the immediate family she is survived by her husband, three daughters and 
two sons, and in the neighborhood a host of warm personal friends will feel 
keenly the loss to earth of this good woman. The floral tributes laid on her 
grave by many loving hands were eloquent witnesses of the life she had lived 
and the service she had wrought.
