Deaths

The virtuous lady "Labiba Ibrahim Sursock," widow of Philippe Tabet and mother of His Excellency Georges Bey Tabet, former Minister of the Interior, has answered the call of her Lord.

Mrs. Tabet was the first president of the Lebanese Women's Union, and one of the ladies who performed great works in the social and humanitarian field.

Beirut, in all its classes, walked in the funeral of the noble departed, weeping in her the praiseworthy qualities and the charitable hand that always labored for the good.

And "The Woman's Voice," as it extends itself to her noble children, and especially to His Excellency Georges Bey Tabet, bows before the memory of the great departed, asking God that her reward be in the measure of her charities.

• We have received from al-Nabk the death notice of Mrs. Emily Omar Artana, widow of the late Dr. Daoud Katibah and mother of Dr. Ibrahim Katibah and Dr. Daniel Katibah.

A well-attended funeral was held for her, in which delegations from the regions walked.

To the Katibah family and their kin, our condolences; and upon the departed, the mercy of God.

• There has passed to the mercy of God Almighty the notable Mr. Rafla Atallah. The deceased was one of those few men who performed great humanitarian works; he enjoyed, God rest him, the love of all his acquaintances, and was trusted by all.

In him his friends have lost an intimate friend who loved and was faithful. May God grant him mercy in the measure that he gave and loved and was faithful.
