Mrs. Odell Buried Wednesday Morning; Rites At Cross Roads
Funeral services for Mrs. J. A. Odell of Cross Roads were held
Wednesday moring at teh Baptist church in that community.
Mrs. Odell died Monday night following a long illness.

The services were conducted by Rev. Day, pastor of the Cross
Roads church, he being assisted by Rev. D. R. Cartlidge, pastor
of the West Athens Baptist Church. The final rites had been
postponed until Wednesday pending the arrival of Lester (Firpo)
Odell, a son of the deceased, who lives at Columbia, South
