      HENNING***Mrs. Therza Meazles Carter, wife of Mr. Frank Carter, a merchant of this place, passed away quietly January 31, 1923. She was 59 years of age. Owing to the failing health, Mrs. Carter had been confined to her home for quite awhile, but bore her confinement with the greatest patience and cheerfulness. The community extends deepest sympathy to the bereaved husband, and may he be made to feel by Divine instinct, that his loss, is her eternal gain. Funeral service was held at the Baptist Church in Henning the following day @ 10 a.m. and interment was in Maplewood Cemetery.
