The funeral of Miss Sattie Smith was held at the Christian Church on Saturday morning. There was a good attendance in spite of the terrible weather. The body was laid to rest beside those of her parents in the Presbyterian Cemetery. Sara Olive Smith was born at Pine Grove, near Waveland Aug 18, 1864. She was the second of three children born to Frederick and Marsena Smith. The older sister, Mary, died Oct 18, 1888; Mrs. Marsena Smith, July 2, 1891 and Frederick Smith Nov 3, 1901; leaving of the family on Charles F Smith and his little daughter Marsena. To the latter the ceased woman certainly filled a mother's part and the future of the little girl was her chief care during her final illness. She joined the Christian Church under the ministry of Rev. Mr. Ewing in 1899 and was active in Church work until prevented by failing health, belonging to the Ladies' Aid and CE Societies. - transcribed and donated by Karen Bazzani Zach
