Beside this stone in sweet repose, Is laid a Mother's earliest pride, A flower that scarce had walked to life, and light and beauty, ere it died. (Note: On the back of this stone was the following inscription: No bitter tears for thee be shed, Blossom of being seen and gone, With flowers alone we strew thy bed, O blest departed one.") TIMMONS, ANNIE ELIZA - Wife of W. H. Timmons, Born in Limestone Co., Ala., July 6, 1835, died June 7, 1905.
