On October 25th, the Death Angel entered the home of Coroner B.F. Neely and took from that happy home his beloved wife, who had stood by him for many years. Many friends are left to mourn the loss of such a noble sympathetic and kind woman. No doubt, but what she is at rest with the many names who abide in the blissful beyond. We extend to the bereaved our deepest sympathies. [L.L. Neely, 4 Jun 1868 – 25 Oct 1907; buried Rock Creek Baptist Church Cemetery]
