MRS. Hefey.

Mrs. Lou e. Heley, beloved wife
of ]. A. Kelley of this city, dice
last Monday at noon, Aug S, 1907
Mrs. Hehey was patient sufferer
for many years. A short time age
she was taken to Nashville for sur
gical treatment, but the operation
at that time was considered mad
l'visable. Her sickness was traceable
to gall stone. She came home and
to all appearances was improving,
but suffered from a violent relapse
Thursday and grew worse until life
was no more.
Mrs. Hefiey was 46 years of age.
She was born in Dyer County. She
was the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. Il. Odom, and, with. her pa
rents, came to Woodland Mills in
her youth. On Dec. p, 1880, she
was united in marriage to J. A..
Hehey at Woodland and the union
was blessed with seven children,
two of whom are dead. The sur
vivors are Vernon, Mrs. Matte
Bryan, Wilbur, John and Herbert.
Her father died two years ago, leav-
ing, Of thai lily, Mrs. Odom, her
mother, and brother, j. T. Odom,
of Russellville, Ark, who was pres
ent during the last hours of illness.
Mrs. Hefey embraced Christian
ity when a girl and joined the Bap-
fist Church at Woodland Mills in
1881. 1t is not possible to form
correct idea of the life of good
woman in a few words. With pa
thence and fortitude she sustains
the ills and heartaches as only a
mother can, and with devotion SUBJ
lime finds solace and happiness in
ler household. Her heart and soul
are wrapt in the lives OF loved ones.
rhisis true of all good mothers,
Ind of these the deceased was a
iotable example. Devoted to her
'amily, faithful in all things, kind
hearted, true, Mrs. Hefiey enjoyed |

.eem Of friends. The loss of such |
i wife and mother is bereavement

relatives in Union City, preached
last Sunday morning to a large
congregation at the Presbyterian
Church, the church having been un-
occupied for some time. A great
number of old-time friends greeted
Mr.. Garth, and while they came to
hear him preach, they no less de-
sired to pay their respects to the
minister. Mr.. Garth delivered a
good SERMON and the music by the
Garth family was thoroughly en-
joyed. Mr.. Garth preached again
