Miss MOllie Brown Found Dead in
Her Home.


(From The Laddonia Herald.)
The Wesley Chapel community
was shocked Monday afternoon about
three o'clock when the news was
phoned over the county that Miss
Mollie Brown was dead.
She with her sister, Miss Birdie,
lived on farm of their brother,
RUDE Brown.
Miss Mollie was in her usual
heath, having attended church at the
Littleby Baptist church Sunday
night.
Monday morning she was feeling
as we'll as usual and her sister, Miss
Birdie, went over to her brothers,
Rube, and remained till after din
ner.
RUDE had some repair work to do
on the barn at his sisters, and he
took dinner with Miss Mollie. He
left the home about two o'clock and
his sister opened the gate for him.
He had been using their Ratchet and
as he passed thru he handed the
same to her.
When Miss Birdie returned home
she found her sister lying on the
floor dead. She gave the alarm and
relatives and neighbors soon gather
ed in and DR.. Mccall was phoned for,
but the lady could not be resuscita-
ted.
1t seems that after her brother left
she went to the house, cracked and
ate some hickory nuts. They evil
IDENTIFY made her sick for she had
thrown up.
The lady was subject to heart
spells and it is believed that one of
these attacks was the cause of her
death.
Miss Mollie was the daughter of
G. B. Brown and wife, was born in
Montgomery county, July Z, 1859.
She moved with her parents to this
cunty in IS, where she had since
lived. She was a member of the
Baptist Church and lived a pure and
consecrated life.
Her parents died some ten or 10
years ago.
She is survived by one sister, Miss
Birdie, and four brothers, RUDE and
Jack, two prominent farmers and
stock men, of this county; George OF
Montgomery county, and James OF
East st. Louis.
Funeral services were conducted
at Littleby Baptist church at ten
o'clock Wednesday morning.
Rev. F. L. White oficiated.
The Herald extends SYM athy to
the sorrowing brothers, and especial
ly to the lonely sister. May God be
merciful to them.
