A Family Tragedy
In an unexpected course of events Ruth May Price, the youngest of four daughters to Nathan and Orleanna Price of Georgia, died in a tragic snake encounter during their mission trip in the Congo.
Sister to the deceased, Leah Price, recalled, "I only remember hearing a gulp and a sob and a scream all at onc, the strangest cry, like a baby taking its first breath. We couldn't tell where it came from, but strangely enough, we all looked up at the treetops." The four girls were in their back yard when it happened while their parents were asleep indoors. Nelson, a Congolese friend of the family, attempted to administer first aid. Family and neighbors are still grieving her untimely death.
