"The Roanoke Leader" -- Roanoke, Randolph Co., Alabama

NEWSPAPER Issue of Wednesday, January 28, 1924

IN MEMORY OF J.H. LILES

Joseph H. Liles was born September 9, 1851 and died January 7, 1925 at his 
home in LaGrange, Georgia, where he with his family moved a little more than 
a year ago from near Milltown, Alabama. Truly a good man has left us and 
what better could be said of him than he was a good man. He was a man of few 
words but what he may have said would not have lived on like the influence 
of his quiet life will live on. He was a faithful member of the Missionary 
Baptist church at Milltown for thirty-five years. The funeral was held from 
the First Baptist church in LaGrange and was conducted by his pastor Dr. 
Spencer Tunnell, assisted by Dr. Rucker, Rev. G.D. Hunt and Rev. C.B. 
Martin. His family, his neightobrs and his friends will miss him but our 
loss is his gain, for we know after suffering nine long weeks that he is 
free from pain now and safe at home.

"Dearest father, he has left us,

Left us, yes, forever more,

But we hope to meet our loved one,

On that bright and happy shore.

Lonely the house and sad the hour,

Since our dear one has gone,

But, oh! A brighter home than ours,

In Heaven, is now his own.
