Roberson, Nora

Miss Nora Roberson, aged sixteen and one-half years, died at her home in Sylvia last Friday afternoon, Oct. 30, having been sick ten days with typhoid fever. Nora was a good conscientious girl and a true earnest Christian, having joined the Church of Christ last January. On Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, funeral services were conducted at the Christian church by M. A. Draper of Stafford. The service was held in memory of Alta Roberson, also who died on September 30, and was buried with only a short service, as the family were then unable to attend. All of the family were present at Miss Nora's funeral service, which was attended by a very large crowd of friends. The remains of Miss Nora were interred in the I. O. O. F.cemetery beside her sister Alta. The whole community sincerely sympathize with the bereaved family.
