of her sisters, Mrs. @. NJ. Word, died in
this city in 1892. Another sister, who
married Rev. T. W. Sydnor, died last
year. Mrs. Sydnor was the wife OF Bap-
fist minister. Mss McClanahan leaves a
number of nieces and nephews, among
whom may be mentioned Mrs. w. D..
Stuart and Mrs. p. w. Reynoldsot Roa-
noke; Harry NJ. Word, of Montgomery
