"The LaFayette Sun" - Februay 18, 1914:
In Memory.
As the sun arose on the 29th day of January 1914, the spirit of Mrs. Janie Carter took its flight into the world above, and death's irresistible hand laid her body low, brining sorrow to her husband and children. It was my sad lot to witness the sad scene. She was sick a long time and suffered more than tongue could tell especially the last few days, and all that was known to do, was done for her, but to no avail.
She was born, February 21, 1875, died January the 29th, 1914. She was married August 22, 1895 to W. W. Carter. To them were born six children, two girls and four boys. Two are dead, four are living. she was carried to Macedonia the next day, and after the writer and Elder J. T. Satterwhite tried to speak some words of comfort to the bereaved, she was laid in the grave to await the call of God to come forth to live with God and his angels in an endless eternity.

July 8, 1914:
There was a large crowd at Macedonia Sunday afternoon at the singing. Prof. Shivers was present with many other good singers and lovers of the "Old Sacred Harp" music and the lesson was a memorial service, in memory of Mrs. JANIE CARTER, a deceased member of the society there.
