Sallie McPherson Died at Home of Her Daughter in Dunn, N.C., Jan. 28, 1921

Mrs. Sallie McPherson, widow of the late Murdock McPherson, passed away last Friday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Horace Jernigan of Dunn, where she had been on a visit since the Christmas holidays. Since the death of her son, Mr. Will McPherson of Foorida, she had made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Pierce Wormack on Route 1. Her remains were brought to Crane’s Creek cemetery for interment. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Olive, pastor of the Baptist church at Dunn, assisted by Rev. L.H. Joyner of Cameron.

Mrs. McPherson was an industrious, home loving woman, a good Christian, member of the Baptist church, and a woman well liked by all her friends.
