(From Thursdays Daily

(tfOm lnuISudy 'diiS'
 Mrs. Clyne, wife of Dr. A. G. Clyne, died this morning at SIX l'clock at the family home six miles Southwest of the city following an illness extending over period ot several weeks. She was 75 years of age. Funeral has been announc- ed to take place at Rock Hill to- morrow afternoon at o'clock, fol- lowed by interment in Browns Chapel cemetery. The funeral and burial services will be conducted by Rev. J. s. Rogers, of Little Rock, assisted by Rev. B. l.. Bridges, pastor of the Paragould First Baptist church.
 In the death of Mrs. Clyne the county loses a most estimable iady, one who was dearly beloved by a very extensive acquaintance-Very popular with everyone knowing her, and Christian character whose in fluence was pronounced and will be missed in the social life of the com munity in which she had so long re- sided. She was a member of the Rock Hill Missionary Baptist church and was very devoted to the Chris tian faith. She was member of one of the oldest families of this section of the state. She was 2 Lloyd, Mrs. Sarah O'Steen and Mrs. James Cooper Survived by two daughters, Mrs. c. D. Morrico, who was at the bedside at the time of her death, and Mrs. Dr. J. N. Mine tree, of Las Cruces, New Mexico. All members of the family are here with the exception of Mrs. Minetree, who, on account of i'll health, will be unable to come.
 Mrs Minetree has been a resi- dent of Las Cruces, New Mexico, a number of years. A message receiv- ed from her husband, Dr. Minetree, this morning announced her inabil- ity to attend the funeral and burial of her mother.
 Mrs Clyne had been in failing health for some time and became seriously i'll several weeks ago and had been confined to her bed a greater portion of the time during the past few weeks. This morning her daughter, Mrs. Morrice, went to her bedside to assist her to the breakfast table. In an effort to as , sst the patient to leave the bed, Mrs. Clyne fainted and sank into inconsistencies and died within a very brief time. It is said that an attack of flu few days ago caused her to lose strength very rapidly and her death is directly attributa- ble to that cause.
 The large number of friends of Dr. A. c. Clyne deeply sympathize with him in the sorrow that has thus been cast upon his life and his home.
