[Additions:]
Newspaper clipping, no date or attribution
but assumed 1878--
"A sudden death occured here last Friday evening,
that of Mrs. Freelove Reynolds, an old and beloved
resident of this town, the mother of Mrs. Deacon
Luther Smith. She was a venerable and esteemed
lady and making her home of late years, among
her children. Her age was 78 years and 6 months.
She was buried from the Baptist church last Sunday
afternoon. A gathering of the relatives and special
friends occurred at Deacon Luther Smith's --
where she died-- at 3 P.M., where a brief service
was held by Rev. Mr. Warren; when all repaired
to the Baptist church where a large congregation were
assembled filling the house. Mr. Warren delivered
the funeral discourse from Jeremiah 12:5, "What
wilt thou do in the swellings of Jordan." The singing
by the Baptist choir on the occasion was very
excellent, especially the hymns, "The shining shore"
and "Shall we gather at the river?" Many eyes were
filled with tears in different parts of the house, and all
felt that the Holy Spirit's influence was resting upon
the audience."
