The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, August 6, 1908 PRISCILLA PRATHER, the aged colored lady, died at the JACKSON residence in this city, last Thursday. The funeral was held at the A.M.E. Church, on Saturday, conducted by the pastor. She was perhaps 90 years of age, a native of Virginia and was born in slavery. For several years she had been blind, but now she is freed from human suffering and her sight is restored more brilliant than the possibilities of this life, for she was a devout Christian and ever happy in the faith of an eternity. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert March 18, 2005 iggy29@rnetinc.net http://www.rootsweb.com/~ialucas/Main.htm Notify Administrator about this message?
