Newspaper unknown
Date unknown

Mrs. Nora Holt, wife of Near Holt, and daughter of A. M. Galyean, died at the home of her father, near Hiwasse, on the morning of Dec. 10th, 1907, age 22 years and 22 days. Her remains with that of her infant babe were buried in the Mt. Pleasant Cemetery on the llth, followed by a large crowd of sorrowing relatives and friends. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Wm. Edwards. Her death was a shock to her relatives and friends and especially to her husband, with whom she had lived for less than three years. Her mother died when she was 15 years old leaving a large family of children. Nora, although so young, with the assistance of her father, looked after and cared for those younger than herself in a way that would have done credit to one much older, in many respects taking the place of mother, and being of a very kind and loving disposition she naturally became the favorite of the family and it was hard to have to part with her. She professed faith in Christ several years ago and united with the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church, of which she was a member at the time of her death. A. FRIEND.
