Loving hands have done all that could
be done to relieve her suffering and
save her life, but death claimed her
today at the South Mississippi In
Urinary, after an operation on Sunday
in the endeavor to save her life.
Her girlhood and early married life
was spent at Talladega, on the old
family plantation home just out of the
city and she took her part in the
gaities and life of the prominent old
Southern family of which she was A
member, her father being the late Mr..
Phillip Montgomery.
Mrs. Haney, who has not been well
since last summer, was Miss Kate
Montgomery, of Talledega, Ala. before
her marriage. She is survived by her
husband, three daughters, Bessie, Nav
and Agnes, son, John T. Haney. and
step-son, Paul Haney, the latter be-

sometime ago by her illness. She also
leaves a sister, Mrs. Lokey and two
brothers, Mr.. A. U. Montgomery. of
this city and DR.. Montgomery, of At

her death.

color or nationality ministered unto,
even when hardly able to leave her
bed herself. Not only to the old was
she friend in need, giving of her
home and her means, but to the young.
Young people were her especial fav-
orites and from childhood she planned
for their happiness or advancement
and good, until in the memory of the
oldest inhabitants the walls of her
home have rung with the voices of
her young friends. But especially the
poor and needy will miss her gentle
hand and ready assistance, and the
list is long, for truly of her it may be
said her right hand knew not what
her left hand did.
Mrs. Haney was a charter member
of the Whatsoever Circle of the Kings
Daughters and Sons, and was always
interested in their work.
The funeral will take place Wednes
day morning at 10 o'clock from the
residence on Court street, and Rev. E
