of the community.
Surviving are his wife; five daughters, Mrs Laura Russell of
Mountain Home, Mrs Rose Dewey and Mrs Mae Hamlet of Rodney, Mrs Elizabeth
Stone of Calico Rock and Mrs Hattie Barwig of San Francisco, Calif.; six
sisters, Mrs Adeline Langston, Mrs Calla Whitfield, Mrs Samantha Inman, Mrs
Deanie Rader, Mrs Jane Russell and Mrs Martha Hunter; a half brother, T. H.
Hively and eleven grandchildren.

Cemetery with the Roller Funeral Services in charge.

I was lucky enoough to meet May (Woodcock) Hamlet. She was quite a lady. The
last time I saw her she was walking to the market which was a few blocks
from her home. She had on her bonnet and her little bag over her arm, to
carry her groceries home in. She didn't want a ride. By this time her eyses
were so bad she couldn't see to read. She lived to have her 99th birthday.
