On Jan. 29, 1918 God in his loving wisdom saw fit to remove from this earth our beloved brother. Mr. B. F. Lewis who 66 yrs of age, he was one of the oldest and most highly respected men in Neshoba County. He was a man of many friends in this and adjoining counties especially among Christian people, for he was himself a devoted Christian and will be greatly missed in the Masters Kingdom work here on earth. We do not hold him up as one free from mistakes, but we cherish the memory of such a life and feel that his life example worthy to follow therefore be it resolved: First that we deplore the death of brother Lewis yet we bow in humbler submission to him who doeth all things well. Second: He will be greatly missed in our town, in our community, in our Sunday school, in our lay meetings, in our preaching services, in face in every good work he served as an advisor and leader. Third - That Neshoba Baptist Church and Sunday School extend to the bereaved relatives and friends our sincerest sympathy in this dark hour of deepest bereavement and point them for comfort to him for whom it is said as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him. Forth - that a copy of this be sent the Neshoba Democrat and Baptist Record for publication and that it be spread in full in our church minutes. Committee: R. B. Vance, G. C. Burroughs, J. L. Viverett.
