Arnold French Chambliss
The Tate County Record, June 22, 1883
On the 27th of April, 1883, Arnold French, Infant son of MR. & MRS. W. R. CHAMBLISS. It lived only to bud and was called home to the Paradise of God, to bloom and become a sweet angle of mercy to descend on the ladder that Christ made to span the great gulf between earth and heaven; to hover around the hearts of its parents to draw them and others closer to their duty and to God, at the last hour of their sojourn here. They may say as did Christ "Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven."

Being gentle, affectionate and obedient, she was the pride of her fond father, and a sweet comfort to her devoted mother, while her kind and amiable disposition won for her the admiration and affections of all who knew her.
