Facts Abou, Mrs. johnson.

Some things concerning the woman
who had been married six times, as
stated by the New Era Of the 2lst.,
which are positive mistakes.
The writer Of this piece takes
pleasure in correcting mistakes made
by the NeW Era concerning the life
of the late Mrs. p. j. johnson, and
desires instead 10 state the true facts
as they are known by her friends
As is known by everybody, Mrs.
johnson had her faults and who has
not, but she was at heart a christian
woman with more virtues than vices.
When quite young she united with
the Methodist Church, but after few
years for some reason OF her own she
withdrew from that church and joined
the First Presbyterian Church Of this
city, OF which she was consisten.
member until her death, She was
at the time Of her death member Of
the Christian Eudeavor aud the Wo.
nsn's Missionary Societies Of that
church.
In regard TO her marriages, she
was married five times and not six
times ss given 10 the NeW Era.
Her first husband, Mr.. Suddarth,
was perfect gentleman, with whom
she lived in peace and happiness until
his death. She then married Mauliff
Tucker, who was well known ia Hop
kinsvlle. Her third husban was Jake
Troxtel, who for a long time WAS at
Aicted; but she cared for him as only
tender, loving wife could do, until
death relieved his suffering. The
fourth was Wallace Coe, whom the
Ne'o Era designated as "a Hard
Egg, This marriage proved a fail
ure. as il usually does when a woman
mistakes druukard for man. AZ.
ter learning that his faults were Of
such a nature that she could not live
with him 10 peace, she several times
paid him TO leave the city never to re-
turn; but like promises of most
drunksrds are kept he would come
back; and through the influence of
friends she was persuaded 70 live with
him again. Up IN this time there had
been no divorce, therefore there was
no need OF second marriage,
as our wise Netc Era re-
porter informed us, Finding life in
tolerable with him she secured d.
vorce; since then she had never heard
OF him until news OF his death reach
ed her. She was never a deserted
wife.
After while she married Mr..
johnson, Of whose death the Netc
Era speaks as being so we'll remem-
bered
The deceased was sick Tor a long
time but was tenderly cared for by
her relatives and friends,
The funeral services took place on
Tuesday the 2lst at her late residence
and was conducted by her pastor
Rev. S. n. Vail. Interment at Hope
well Cemetery.
