Funeral sarvices for Mrs. Mar.
tha Leuvenia Griffin, 71, wife of
Uncle Doc Griffin of this commu.
nity. who passed away a t the
family homeat 8 p. m. Sunday,
April 28th, were held from the
Methodist Church Monday after-
noon. The services were con-
ducted by the Rev. George C.
Hardy, pastor of the church, as-
sisted by Rev. J. L. Brantley,
Baptist pastor. Interment took
place in the Malakoff Cemetery
with arrangements in the hands
of the Ballard Funeral Home.
Mrs, Griffin, whose maiden
name was Martha Leuvenia Tid-
more, was born in Hale County,
Alabama, October 26, 1864, She
became the wife of D. F. Griffin
November 28, 1880. In the year
1890 they moved to Smith Coun-
ty, Texas, and later in the year
1900, they moved to Malakoff,
where the family have since re-
sided.
The deceased was the mother
of 13 children, eight of whom,
with the husband and father, are
to mourn her passing. The
children now living are as fol.
lows: Mrs. J. N. Jones and Mrs
Alice Buceer of Dallas; Mrs Lena
Wilcox, Hollis, Oklahoma; D. T.
Griffin, Athens; R. T. Griffin,
Corsicans; W. A. Griffin. Dallas;
R. M. Griffin, Ft. Worth; and
Robert Griffin of this city. She
is also survived b y 34 grand-
children and 9 great-grand.chil-
dren.
Mrs. Griffin, according to her
loved ones, accepted Christ when
at the age of 15 years and united
with t h e Methodist Church.
Throughout her long and useful
life, she lived for her Master.
She was always quiet and unas-
suming and never complaining, a
devoted wife and an old fashion-
ed mother in the best and high
est senseof the word. In the
community, as well as in the
family circle, she leaves a place
that can never be filled, and she
will be sorely missed by her
friends and neighbors who have
learned to love her down through
the years.

)letion without further delay.
The huge building, situated on
the south end of the athletic field
was started something over a
year ago but the work was stop-
ped when the State withdrew
the funds which they had for-
merly agreed to furnish the pro-
ject in labor supplied from the
Relief Rolls.
Owing to the shortage in the
supply of skilled labor now avail-
able from the relief rolls, it is
expected that the completion of
the building will be of a slow pro.
cess. The State, aware of the
unfavorable comment that the
partly built structure, situated so
prominently on Highway 31, has
caused, are now determined that
the building must be completed
and as rapidly as possible.
The gymnasium, when com-
pleted, will be a valuable addition
to the school plant and a great
asset to the community at large.
