vacant house, where she was supposed
to have spent the night without fire,
food or any extra cover Altho search
ing parties are still out, the body, sup
posed to be frozen, has not been found.
For some time her mind has been slight
ly deranged on the subject of religion.
Floyd Masters, whose home is in the
Table Rock Cove, while assisting in the
search for the above mentioned woman,
remarked that he was not feeling we'll
and that he would return to his home
nearby. A few hours later the party
returned by way of where they had left
him and found him dead He was an
honest and respected man and is surviv-
ed by wife and several children. An
inquest was held Monday and after an
examination Of the body by DR.. Cren-
shaw the jury announced that death was
due to apoplexy. Burial took place at
Saluda Hill Monday.

quite ill., is improving.
