Alexander, of Putnam county, the place of her birth. The surviving acquaintances of her earlier life will recall the beaming features and buoyant cheerfulness which distinguished her debut as a young lady into the brilliant society of that period of the history of our city. The qualities which thus made her the “loved of all” have contined to render her through life an object of endearment to an ever increasing circle of friends, until she is recognized as having acted well her part iu more relations than often falls to the lot of woman. In this community she is more dis tinctively known as the mother of a large house hold of lovely daughters and cultured sons, the former of whom have all died, while the war and successive deaths in early manhood leave «nly three of the latter to revere her virtues. Tho crowning grace of an abiding Christian spirit from childhood tells the fuller and brighter story ofherlife. The funeral services will take place to-day (.Sunday) in Oswichee at 10 a. m., at the Methodist church, in the adjacent cemetery to which she will be buried. Rase Ball Brevities.
