Mrs. Caroline Hall, a highly respected and pioneer resident of Louisa county, died at the home of J. L. Coon, early last Friday morning after a brief illness. Mrs. Hall was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Flack and came with them to Louisa county when she was two and one-half years old. She was born February 13, 1837, in Indiana. She was married July 3, 1856, to Washington Hall, who preceded her in death in August 1911. No brothers, sisters or children survived to mourn her death. Mrs. Hall was buried in her wedding dress which she had worn July 3, 1856 or just a few days more than sixty years ago. For the past three years Mrs. Hall has made her home with Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Coon. Funeral services were held Saturday morning at their home conducted by Rev. C. L. Wilson and interment was made in the Tennessee cemetery.
