whether the imported Ring Neck
pheasants sent to this county by the

WHOLE CITY
IS DEPRESSED
Death of Mrs. Elizabeth Clay Thomas
Casts a Gloom Over Entire
Community.

In spite of all that medical science
could do and the tender, loving min
istrations of her loved ones, the
Grim Reaper death could not be
stayed and the gentle spirit Of Mrs.
Elizabeth Clay Thomas, wife of Mr..
r. P. Thomas, on Saturday night at
7 80 took its fight from this earth
to it's last home beyond. She had
been ill for only short time and it
was thought about week ago she
had chance for recovery, but He
that knoweth all things, willed 9TH
erwise, so Gods finger touched and
she slept.
1t was the writer's privilege to
have known her since early child
hood and a more generous hearted,
staunch and loyal friend, no one
ever had. Possessing the happy
faculty of making and holding
friends, a characteristic Of the Clay
family, she was one IF the most pop
ular women ever reared in this COM
munity. She had a bright, sunny dis
position, was one of the most popular
girls in Central Kentucky and no
social function was considered COM
plete without her charming presence.
She was only % years of age and
death coming as it did, in the very
spring time of life, when she had so
much to live for, makes her taking
especially sad.
She is survived by her husband,
two little daughters and her father,
Mr.. M. c. Clay, besides many other
relatives in this and adjoining coun-
ties.
Funeral services were conducted
at the home by Rev. Clyde Darsie of
the Christian church, of which Mrs.
Thomas was a member, Monday
morning at 10 80 o'clock, with bur-
ial in Machpelah cemetery. The
large number of flowers were mute
tributes of the love and affection in
which she was held by her friends.
The Advocate tenders deepest SYM
pathy to the bereaved and heart
broken family.
