Rensselaer Republican, Volume 27, Number 33, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 April 1896 — Death of Mrs. E. R. Burr. [ARTICLE]

Death of Mrs. E. R. Burr.

Mrs. Mary. Noland Burr, formerly of Jasper Co., died at the home of her sister Mrs. Frank Burr near Scottsburg, Halifax County, Virginia, April 10, 1896. She was a daughter of Wesley Noland of this county and was married to E. R. Burr about five years ago, and soon afterwards moved to Campbell County, Virginia, where she lived until December 1895 when she went to Halifax Co., in the hope that the change of climate would improve her health. She was perfectly resigned to the will of her Father and though she was not healed of her malady still her confidence in God was unshaken, to the last. Her husband being notified of her serious illness went to her bed-side about ten! days before her death and did all for her a loving help-mate could. She was btiried in Scottsburg cemetery, Bev. W. F. A. Haynes, of Clover, Vs., conducting the funeral services.
