The sad messenger of death entered home of Wm. Denney, Saturday morning at 3:30, and took away the wife and mother of the family. She had been a patient sufferer of spinal trouble for nearly a year. Her sufferings had been intense but she bore them bravely until Sunday morning, when her spirit took its heavenly flight where there will be no more suffering. This loving mother leaves a husband and two sons to mourn her loss. Rev. Callison conducted the funeral services Monday, at 10 o’clock a.m.
