• Notes

  Sister J. P. Lowery, wife of one of our faithful preachers, of Monroe, La., passed to her reward on February 1, at the age of fifty-nine. She was reared at Bolivar, Tenn., and in early years was married to J. P. Lowery. She was the mother of six children—three sons, three daughters. While these were rather young, Brother and Sister Lowery lived seven years in Henderson. During this time he taught in what is now Freed-Hardeman College, while Sister Lowery kept some of the girls in her home. She was an exceedingly fine character—a good mother, a devoted wife, and a faithful member of the body of Christ. For forty years she walked side by side with her husband, sharing life's sorrows and joys and laboring together for the advancement of the cause she dearly loved. Throughout her career nothing but the best was said of her, and in her burial concrete evidences of love and esteem came from six States wherein she had been with her husband, who was telling the story. There is no comfort possible to those who loved her best equal to that found in his word. Her many friends unite in sympathy to her husband and children. N. B. Hardeman. - Gospel Advocate March 23, 1939, page 287. [4]
