month and for the past few days
had been lying at the point of
d cath Before marriage Mrs.
Pollard was Miss Verna Tadlock,
of Danville, and was a young
woman much loved and admired
by her many friends. She was
the wife of Mr.. X. Willard Pol

Mt. Sterling Laundry Co., who
has the sympathy of the entire
community in the loss of an affec-
tionate and loving wife, a true
friend and a lovely Christian lady.
Besides her husband she is surviv-
ed by a sixteen-months- old son

past few days but who is now re-
ported to be some better.
The body was taken to Danville

held at the residence of her broth
er and the remains laid to rest in

In the loss of Mrs. Pollard the
community has lost one of the
noblest and most beloved Christian
women that ever lived in our city.
She was young woman possessed
with many graces of heart, had a
kind and winning disposition which
won for her a place in the hearts
of her acquaintance which will
never be filled and the memory of
this good woman will never be
forgotten.
