Death of Mrs. George Cox. Mr. Geo. Cox has the sympathy of all in the loss of his beloved wife whose death occurred last Thursday, after an illness of several weeks duration. The deceased
was (Anna) a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Covvey and was married to Mr. Geo. Cox twelve years ago last Christmas. Four bright daughters were born to them, the youngest of whom died just a few days before the mother was carried away. In her weakened condition it is thought that the shock and bereavement hastened her death. The funeral was held in this city Saturday at the Presbyterian church and the remains were followed to their resting place in Grace Hill cemetery by a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends
