Mrs. w. L. Howell Dead.

On last Monday morning, Aug.
16, 1915, at $3.50 o'clock, the death
angel visited the home of Mr.. w. L..
Howell near Yorkville and claimed
for it's victim his beloved wife, Mary.
She was only confined to her bed
but one week. Her first complaint
was of small pimple on her face,
in which blood-poison set up, caus-
ing her death.
While she was nearing her 74th
birthday, she was enjoying reason
ably good health previous this and
her death came as shock to the en-
tire community.
She was loving Christian char
acter, having professed faith in
Christ when ten years of age and
Joining the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church at Bells Chapel shortly
afterwards, where she has remained
a faithful member every since.
She was born and reared in a
quarter of mile of where God saw
fit to call her loving spirit UP to
that higher and better world, and
her bright and pleasant face will not
only be missed by her loved ones,
but the entire community will miss
a true and tried friend.
She is survived by a husband,
three children and host of rela-
tives, all of whom have the deepest
sympathy of the vicinity.
Funeral services were conducted
Monday afternoon by Rev. Nell

If such is the ease, the crew of the Salvor are to be congratulated as they did not arrive at the scene of the wreck until Sunday evening The Delhi went ashore Monday even ing. Jan. IS.
