BARRETT - Sister H. W. Barrett died at her home six miles south of Belton where she had lived many years, on June 15, 1921. She was born in Middle Tennessee in 1852, and was married to H. W. Barrett in 1875. Five children were born to this union, all of whom were at her bedside at the time of her death, with the exception of one, who died in infancy. She confessed faith in Christ early in life and lived a consecrated Christian to the end. She was a faithful wife, a loving mother, and a true friend to those who knew her. She was a dear friend and neighbor of mine and I loved her very much. She leaves a husband, two sons, two daughters, and fourteen grandchildren to mourn her death, and a host of friends who will miss her sweet face. Mrs. A. J. Trayler
