Mrs. Martha Dreharis Dead.

Mrs. Martha G. Dreher, mother of
Mr.. E. S. Dreher, superintendent of
the Columbia city schools, and one Ct
the most widely known and best loved
women Of this county, died at her
home at Selwood, in the Dutch Fork,
Monday morning at o'clock, at the
advanced age of nearly 81 years.
For the past several days Mrs.
Dreher had been extremely i'll, and
the end was not unexpected to her
family and friends.
The deceased Was the mother of a
large and gifted family of sons, many
of whom now have "sllver threads
among the gold"
Befole her marriage to John Jacob
Dreher, she was Miss Counts, a

ty. She was married to Mr.. Dreher
IN 1915, and was ever faithful to her
MARI age VOWS. To them eleven chill
dren were born, ten sons and one
daughter. Eight Of the ten sons are
now living, some of them holding po-
sitions of honor and trust.
Her eldest son, DR.. Julius D. Dreh-
er, was for 25 years president of Roam
oak College, Virginia, and is now
American Consul to Tahiti Islands.
Another son, William G. Dreher, is
the Berlin correspondent of the asso-
ciated press. The other sons are:
Prof. E. S. Dreher and Edwin Dreher
of Columbia; Bachman L., Thad w.,
Heber r., and Charlie Dreher, Of the
Dutch Fork.
For many years Mrs. Dreher had
been a member of St. Michael's Luth-
eran church, and was an active and
consistent member. She was a most
lovable woman, and her death has cast
pail of sorrow over the entire CON-
mummy.
A little more than a year ago-dur-
ing Christmas 19OS-the family held a
reunion, all of the children being
present.
Her remains were laid to rest in the
shadow OF the church she loved yes
