Unknown Glasgow KY newspaper.
"A TRIBUTE TO MRS. MARTHA McCOY TRAVIS. The sad death of our departed fdriend 
occurred at the Maplewood Infirmary April 4th, after an illness of flu and 
pneumonia. She bore her suffering with patience. So sweet and kind to all.

"She was buried in the Refuge Cemetery. Bro. Reno conducting the funeral 
services. The nice floral offering was a token of her many friends.

"Mrs. Travis was 37 years, 11 months, and 15 days old. She made of profession 
of religion in a revival held at Lick Branch in the year 1904, joined the 
church of that place and was baptized. That she remained true to this 
profession is proved by her daily walk in life, and by her sweet patience 
during her last hours of suffering. We are made to wonder why she was called 
home so soon, when her precious little children needed her loving care so 
much. But we cannot question the divine wisdom of God. Perhaps it is to lead 
the way for loving companion and children to follow on after her. So we would 
say to the bereaved companion and children to think of her as a "Guiding 
Star," or a "Beacon Light", pointing the way for you to follow in the path she 
has trod, and you will meet that sweet mother and loving companion around the 
great white throne of God. We wish to add further that you have our tenderest 
sympathy. While we have never lost a companion we lost our mother in early 
yout!
 h. We know it is sad, but can only breathe a silent prayer to the one who has 
promised to take the place of loved ones. To throw the loving arm of 
protection around us. Signed: Her Girlhood Friend."
