September 23, 1897 - August 18, 1902
ENTERED INTO REST"-Dorothy Leigh Gatling, little five year old daughter of Mr.& Mrs.John Gatling of Forrest City was laid to rest Aug.18,1902. After several days illness with fever resulting in congestion of the brain-the child life sped away through that mystic door, where life forever glows. From her home, she was carried to the Church of the Good Shepherd. There for the last time, where her feet had so often had been heard, where her baby voice so often had been heard; there in the midst of friends full of sympathy, memories, and in the midst fair flowers. Then Rev.J.J.Cornish, Rector of the church performed the ceremonies, and then the remains were taken to the Hughes (PROB.CITY) Cemetery to be laid to rest.
