Vaughn - Lawson B - Montgomery InGenWeb Project

Lawson B., son of Howard and Pearl Vaughn, was born March 27, 1897, and died Sept. 5, 1897, age five months and nine days. Little Lawson, the only child of a devoted father and mother, was taken sick on Thursday evening and died Sunday evening. His sickness was short but during that time the little babe suffered death many times. His death came upon us as a keen clap of thunder from a clear sky. Little Lawson was a sweet child possessed of a temperament for pleasantness unsurpassed and no doubt thrill the loving parents’ heart with unspeakable joy when they would look into the little face  that always wore a smile. A bright flower has been taken from them, a treasure that nothing of this earth can restore. For anyone to know little Lawson was to love him. It being the largest crowd that has attended an infant funeral at Liberty we hope that the bereaved parents will take it as evidence that the people share with you in your sore bereavement. -s
