OBITUARY: Elizabeth Williams, 23 Dec 1888 - Smith County, TX Submitted by Vicki Betts 7 December 2002 Copyright.

D. and L. E. Williams, was born May 3, 1872; professed religion and joined the M. E. Church, South, in her twelfth year, and lived a devoted and consistent Christian until Dec. 23 last, when she left this poor, suffering world and went, I trust, where there is no sorrow. Her clothing caught fire someway, and burned her so she died in about ten days. Bettie was a good girl, obedient to her parents and kind to her brother and sisters. May God comfort her bereaved parents and friends, and help them meet her in heaven. TYLER, TEXAS C. H. SMITH
