James and Mary Braxon suffer the loss of two children 1865




My best transcription attempt:
OBITUARY. - Mary, the second daughter of James and Mary Braxon, died Sunday, April 9th, aged 2 years (?) and 5 months.
James, their youngest son, aged five years and seven months, died April 13th.

From another entry, the funeral for James, the young son, was held in the Baptist Church, Selma, Ala on the 20th. This is very hard to read and I tried to adjust the poor copy but I had no luck.
