CROSSED THE DARK RIVER


Death OF Lady Formerly Well Known
and Much Beloved.
The death OF Mrs. Camilla M. Sanford
will be learned with unfeigned sorrow
by very large circle Of sincere friends
OF the lady in this county. She was the
widow of General Eugene M. Sanford,
who WAS for several years brigadi err
general of this brigade. She died in
Wharton, Texas, q few days ago. We
have none OF the particulars OF her last
illness, nor are We possessed of any of
the facts of her movements prior to the
sad event that closed her carsor. Mrs
Sanford was noble woman. For many
years she and her husband lived in
their beautiful home ON their ample
farm near the Santa Fe Hot Springs, or
Fulton Wells, as they were formerly
called. She and her husband there dis
pensed magnificent hospitality, and
many will recall with pleasure the So
clal events in which they participated
ID that happy home. Mrs. sanford was
lady OF tine and imposing presence,
and one of the most affable and enter
tanning hostesaes We ever met When
her husband was taken off she was in-
consolable for his loss. They had been
companions from their early youth. and
the death OF one was blow which WAS
more than the other could bear. From
3 strong, healthy woman, of mnch more
than the usual stature, shs fell into a
decline. which terminated in the all TOO
early close OF a life that was beloved by
all who knew her.
