Excerpt from In Fond and Loving Memory of Lonnie Hinton Winston This record of Lonnie's life as given through friends who knew her best, cannot fail to show that the speech and habits of even so young a girl, testify daily to her character. Lonnie early showed many traits of gentleness and loveliness, yet all the while she desired and labored to secure higher attainments and nobler development. Her gentle, loving, unselfish disposition which manifested itself so wonderfully during her last illness and elicited so many expressions of sur prise and admiration from those who saw her, wasnot a. Sudden development or instantaneous blos seming of character, but these traits had grown and strengthened in the lovely bud ere they um folded into the perfect flower.
