Rev. O. B. MATHENY Dies
Nov 13, Rev. O. B. MATHENY answered the call to come up higher, to receive the welcome, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joys of they Lord." He was pastor of the Waynesboro circuit at the time of his death. Before he joined the Methodist Conference several years ago, he lived in the Poplar Springs community. He was loved by all who knew him and we shall sadly miss him; we feel that we have lost a friend. He always wore a smile and carried sunshine wherever he went.
Surviving him are his wife and five children; Robert, Erine, Mary Lorine, Thad and Cora V.; two sisters, Mrs. Tillie DAY and Mrs. Annie BIRCH, of Texas; and a brother, R. J. MATHENY of Poplar Springs community.
Other relatives and a host of friends morn his going but their loss is heaven's gain.
His body was laid to rest in the Hebron cemetery to await the resurrection morn.
A. Friend
