6-Year-Old Ruthie Mae Debrew Has Died, Sept. 12, 1922

Little Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Debrew Passes

The many friends throughout the county of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Debrew will sympathize with them deeply in the death of their little 6-year-old daughter, Ruthie Mae Debrew, who passed away at their home in the Sharon neighborhood last Friday morning, and the funeral services were held from Poplar Springs church Saturday afternoon at 3 o’clock by Rev. Gillespie.

This bright little girl, who was the joy and bride of her parents’ life, had the misfortune to be kicked by a horse some time ago, followed by infantile paralysis, which resulted in her untimely death.
