Graves: -- In this city at midnight, Saturday, March 23, 1889, Mrs. Hattie Bowen Graves, wife of Mr. A.S. Graves, aged 32 years.

Mrs. Graves was born in 1857 in Buffalo, New York; and was married on July 29, 1879. She has been but a few years a resident of this city, and though quiet and retiring in disposition has made many fast friends, who sincerely mourn her early death.

The funeral took place yesterday afternoon and was conducted by Rev. Charles Noble. The bearers were six traveling men, friends of her husband.
