January 10, 1881 - January 2, 1910
Wife of FL Mason
*Obituary (as written)
Gentry Journal-Advance
Friday, January 7, 1910
MASON, Julia May DOUGLAS - Julia May Douglas was born at Hoover, Benton county, Ark. Jan. 10th, 1881. She grew to womanhood at her father's home on the farm where she was the idol of father, mother, brothers, sisters and loved and respected by her many friends and associates. And her unassuming, social, jolly nature made her friends wherever she went. When she was 19 years of age she was converted and has ever since demonstrated her Christianity by words and action in her most spirited, modest way; so that her friends and associates cannot doubt that May is in heaven. And seven years later on Nov. 25th, 1906 she was united in marriage to Fred Mason and happiness, love and constant association spoke louder than words, as May said in the last talk she had with her companion: "Fred, I love you more than anybody; but I need not tell you that, for anyone who knows us knows that. Don't worry about me, Fred, I am all right. I regret to leave you but I am ready to die." She was not only regarded as a jewel in her parental home but with kindest love and affection by every member of Fred's father's family. After residing on the farm a short time they moved to Gentry, located in the neatest and prettiest cottage just across the street from his father, where happiness reigned supremely until her death, caused by blood poison at 5 p.m. Jan. 2nd, 1910, making her age 28 years, 11 months and 22 days. She leaves behind a grief stricken husband to mourn her death, father, mother, four brothers, three sisters, Fred's father and family and a host of friends. On Tuesday, notwithstanding the fact that the earth was sheathed with a heavy sheet of ice and the dark, gloomy appearance of the day, the beautiful white casket that contained the deceased was placed in the hearse, protected from the sleet and rain and was followed by the family and a number of friends to the Mason Valley church, where in waiting was a house full of sad friends and after the funeral sermon by Rev. Armstrong, the remains were tenderly laid to rest in the Coffelt Cemetery.
