Death of Cynthia Warren.

Mrs. Cynthia Warren, known in this
community by everyone as "Aunt Gym
thia," passed quietly into the great be-
yond on Tuesday morning at $3.50 O'Clock,
aged sixty-nine years. She had been sick
for brief time with pneumonia, but the
immediate cause of her death was heart
failure.
The deceased was the widow of William
Johnston Warren, who died in 1878.
These worthy people occupied a unique
position in the community, living honored
lives, and died mourned by the white pop
ulslion as well as the members Of their
own race. Indeed the death of aunt
Cynthia will carry grief into many homes
where her kind and loving ministrations
in trouble and sickness have been SO
often given and were so greatly appreciat.
ed. Many of the ladies of the town
with their own hands carried beautiful
h)wers to lay tCnderly on Ter casket in
testimony of their esteem and affection
Hers was kind, tender and loving dis.
position, and she never seemed SO happy
as when minstering to those in distress.
There are ten living children of John
stcn and Cynthia Warren. They ares
John, Beverly, Hoyt, Fielding, Trux B.,
James and Benjamin Warren; and Lettie'
George, Josephine Carroll aud Lizzie
Holley. All these are highly respected
and prosperous people, and greatly at
tached 10 the memory of their deceased
parents.
Funeral services will be held today in
Main Street Methodist church at II
o'clock.
