ry and Mary Blair, was born Au.
gust 26, 1885, in Caldwell coun.
ty, and died at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. ]. S. Winkler, in
Boone June 3, 1920. At the age OF
six years she, with her parents,
moved to Watauga county. On
October 16, 1860, she was happi-
Iy married to William Horton,
who later became a Colonelin the
Confederate army. Her husband
died May IA, 1876, leaving her
with eight children, three OF
whom preceded her to the grave.
In early life she joined the
Three Fork Baptist church and
was q faithful member until her
death. Having known her practi,
cally all OF my life, l feel that l
can conscientiously say that she
was truly a good woman. Under
all circumstances she was the
same, and | never saw her angry
or impatient aboutanything. One
of the most devoted mothers, kin
dest neighbors and friend to all,
whom it has been my privilege
to know. No one could say of her
that she was not capable of rear.
ing and controlling her large
family. Often did l hear the re.
mark that hers were the best
controlled and most obedient chill
dren in the community. Truly
one of our best women has fallen
asleep. No doubt she receiv-

want. Enter thou into the joys of
thy Lord.
