Mrs. M.M.J. Cherry: Camden., Arkansas May 7th, 1864 Dear Madam: Painful indeed is the task for which I take up my pen this morning that of telling you that your husband is no more among the living, Mr. Cherry fell in the battle of the Saline on the 30th of April. I know this will be dreadful news to you and will convulse your widowed heart with the most violent grief. But you must bow in humble submission to the will of him who doath all things for the best and seek consolation from him who said "Blessed are they that mourn., for they shall be comforted." Believe me I deeply sympathize with you in this terrible -blow and offer you sincere condolence of my heart and humbly and reverently pray to Almighty God to give you strength to bear this severe disposition of his providence. Put your trust in him and see consolation and help from Him. Your husband fell while gallantly charging the enemy, and you have the satisfaction of knowing that he fell while discharging his duty as a soldier. The ball struck him in the right temple and went out the other. He was killed instantly and never spoke after he was struck, Mr. Nichols took his things out of his pockets and took care of them. His clothes will be sent to you if we have the opportunity of doing so. On the next morning Mr. Fish, Ponder, Simmons and myself went to the battlefield, carried him off to a good place and buried him as decently as we possibly could and marked his grave, He is buried on the bank of Cox's Creek about two miles from Jenkins Ferry on the Saline river on the Princeton road. There were four others wounded in the company, J. C. Newton, W. L. Thompson, W. R. Owen, and J. H. Donaldson. The loss of our Reg. is 43 killed and wounded, our victory is full and complete but cost us dearly, J. H. Bibb was not in the fight. He is driving a team in the general (provision) train. He is well and hearty. Please say to my wife that I am well and doing well. I will send a letter to her in a few days. I think our command will be on the Ark. river less than a month. Please accept my best respects and sincerest sympathy. Believe me, Your sincere friend and well wisher. Q. V. Stephens.

W.A. Mosley died at the home of his son, W.T. Mosley, January 9, 1898. Aged 96 years and 7 days. He moved from South Carolina to Arkansas in 1850, and lived on the same place ever since. He had been a member of the Baptist church for 50 years; and a member of the New Edinburg church when he died. All who knew him loved and respected him. We conducted his funeral services on the 10th, in the presence of a large concourse of relatives and friends. Bro. Mosley outlived all of a large family, except two of his children, W.T. Mosley and Sister Youngblood. By: W.H. Cash, Toledo Ark. Baptist Newspaper January 19, 1898 page 15 cols 1 & 2 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Dr. E.H. Moses, of New Edinburg died February 5, 1897. Dr. Moses was born in Georgia, March 10, 1827; educated in the medical school of Philadelphia; married in the spring of 1849. He was a charter member of this church, and for more than forty-six years has walked circumspectly in this community. He was baptized at the age of 20. His funeral was attended by a host of loved ones, who grieve at his departure. This dear brother has been in sympathy with all our church work. The community has lost a good citizen, the church a true light, and the wife a loving husband. We mourn not as those who have no hope. God has taken his loyal child home. We shall meet him by and by. May God be with his dear companion, comfort and keep her until that blessed day. By B.F. Milam Ark.

Mrs. Susan W. Overton, daughter of J.C. Wharton, was born in Lawrence District, S.C., September 23, 1836, moved with her parents to Tennessee, thence to Arkansas in 1848. She accepted Christ and was baptized in 1849. Married to Mr. J.H.W. Overton, August 3, 1854. With her husband, they settled in Bradley (now Cleveland) county, and began their youthful married life near Toledo by settling down to farm life. They were not afraid of hard work and soon opened a good farm and by industry and good management, prosperity was the result. On this same farm they lived and reared a large family--ten children, eight sons and two daughters. Four of these preceded their mother to the "home over there." In 1860 Bro. Overton was converted and was baptized by Eld. Solomon Gardner into the fellowship of New Hope church. Immediately he and his wife went into the organization of Zion church, in which she lived a faithful and zealous member till her death, which occurred at 1 o'clock a.m. June 3, 1900. Her death was the most triumphant the writer ever witnessed. She was perfectly conscious till the last, and called all to her bedside and bade us all goodbye. She told us not to weep, but to meet here where there is no weeping. Her children were all present except one. My language fails, my pen is too weak, to describe the death-bed scenes of Sister Overton. Her life was a constant living power, but her death the greatest of all. May our dear Savior comfort Bro. Overton in these his saddest moments of life, and all the children and grandchildren meet one another on the shining shores of sweet deliverance. The deceased was my eldest sister and the wife of Rev. J.H.W. Overton. By: A.J. Wharton, Bremond Texas Arkansas Baptist Newspaper October 24, 1900 page 15 col 2. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Belinda, anything I post may be used however you wish! Mrs. Mollie S. Graves was born in Carroll County, Georgia, April 5, 1848; died at Kingsland, Arkansas, November 4, 1899, aged 51 years 6 months and 19 days. The dear sister who is the subject of this notice was the daughter of Mrs. R.G. Merrel. Her father died in the army. She joined Macedonia Church, Bradley County, Ark., in the year 1863 or 1864. She married C.C. Graves on December 5, 1867. Afterward she joined Gravel Ridge Church, and later went into the organization of Kingsland Church, of which she lived a very devoted and consecrated member until her death. While the death of Sister Graves was not unexpected, it was very grievous to a host of friends and relatives, because we loved her and realized her great worth to the family, the church, and to the world.
