A Final Tribute

The angle of death has again invaded our family sanctuary and this time claimed for its victim her who gave us birth. It is sad.....

Our mother Serena Allen McPherson was born in East Tennessee--Rhea County we believe--and at time of her death which occurred on 23rd near Benton, Saline County, Arkansas, was, we recollect right, about 72 years of age. She has one brother, yet living, Rev. Samuel A. Johnson, who resides near Blanco, Texas.

Away out here in the Indian Territory, far from the home of our childhood, and those who knew us in our younger days, we mourn, in silence and alone, for our sainted mother. Farewell, dear Ma, sometimes, before long, we will all be gathered together again in that better land above, where sickness, and sorrows never come, and where death will pat us not more.

This was written by Granville McPherson in his newspaper at the passing of his mother, Serena McPherson.
