HOLLAND, Sarah MOORE - {from Thornsberry} April 19th, at six o'clock in the morning, it pleased God to take from us our dear Grandmother Holland, but while we miss her so much our loss is her gain, for we feel assured she has gone to rest. She lacked just one day of staying here ninety-three years, and was buried on her ninety-third birthday. Revs. Gilmore and Armstrong conducted the funeral services. She leaves three children, twenty grandchildren and thirty great-grandchildren. A large number of relatives and friends were present at the funeral.

The family moved to Benton County, Arkansas in 1868 and settled on Lick Branch where she, with her husband, lived until his death occurred February 20 {no year given}. After the death of Brother Holland, Grandma made her home with her son, Henry. She professed religion when but a girl and joined the Methodist Church, in which she lived a consistent Christian for about eighty years. After she got too old and feeble to attend church services she would keep in mind from time to time the days for services and seemed to always be there in spirit. Her last illness was short. The sands of life ran out and she was not, for God took her. Y.A. Gilmore, Pastor.
