AGED MATRON
DIES SUDDENLY
Mrs. Bradley Answers Final
Summons

Mrs. Lucy Ann Bradley, an aged
lady living a few miles north Of
Pocahontas, died at her home last
Friday evening about fye-thirty.
Infirmities incident to old age were
the direct causes, as she was up in
eighty.
For some time she had been III
and confined to her bed for large
part Of the time. On the day Of
her death she seemed to be some
better. w. 7. Abanathy, Mrs.
Bradley's grandson, after doing the
chores around the house, left for
bis work not far away, telling Miss
Hart, his aunt. to call him If she
got any worse. A little after FIVE
o'clock be and his brother, Claude,
were startled by Miss Hart calling.
Leaving their work, they hurried to
answer the summons. When they
arrived they iouud their grand
mother beyond the reach of all
earthly help. She breathed her
last almost the same momens they
arrived.
Mrs. Bradley, or "Grandma'' as
we are most accustomed to call her,
was one of these dear old ladies
that one could not help loving.
Those who were dear TO her will
sadly miss her presence. Three
children survive her, Mrs. T. b.
Abanathy, Miss Josephine Hart,
who was living with her at the
time of her death, and Jas. Hart.
Mrs. Bradley leaves fonr genera
tions behind her, Mrs. 7. b. Ala.
nathy, Mrs. Lucy Petit, Mrs Stone
Eaton and Baby Stone Eaton,
something Of which few families Of
this county can boast.
