THE MART HERALD
MAY 16, 1907
Surrounded by a devoted husband, four loving children, brothers and father, the spirit of Mrs. J. A. Coor took its flight to other realms beyond on last Monday night at 9 o'clock, all medical skill being tried for her relief but the disease had long since fastened its deadly fangs on her frail body and it was after a struggle of about three months that she surrendered to the Grim Reaper and her spirit, on the wings of its maker ascended to the portals of a brighter and purer world. She had been a sufferer for several months of Brights Disease but had only been considered dangerously ill a few days, and a few hours before death it was realized that the end was near when relatives were sent for, to arrive only a few hours before death.
Among the out of town relatives to attend were Father Tom Barron, Natches, Miss.; Joe Barron, Rockdale; Mrs. Jno. Barron, daughter Miss Cora, and two sons, Cameron; A. V. Barron, wife and son; Maypearl; W. O. Barron, wife and son of Calvert.
Mr. Coor and family moved here about a year ago from Calvert and the family have made many friends who deeply sympathize with them in this the saddest of all hours-death.
Rev. J.H. Braswell conducted the funeral services at the residence at 4 o'clock Tuesday evening previous to interment in the Mart cemetery.
