DEATH OF MHS. SIMS.
Ono of Our Mont Prominent LadlfN
K*mhhc8 Away.
Cedartown was greatly shocked
Monday morning by a sad message
announcing the death Sunday night
In Atlanta of Sirs. B. F. Sims, one of
our city’s most prominent and popu
lar ladles. It was not known to
many that she had been critically ill,
(hough she had been In bad bealth
ever since her return from Carolina
this summer, nnd has in fact been a
secret nnd patient sufferer for years.
She wsb taken to Dr. Holmes’ sani
tarium In Atlanta a couplo of weeks
since to undergo a delicate nnd dlftl-
cult operation, which it was thought
would effect a cure.. Tho operation
was performed last Thursday, nnd
Mrs. Sims rallied from its effects
nicely. A change for the worse oc
curred Saturday, however, und she
passed away Sunday night.
Tho remains wore brought to Ce-
dartown at noon Blonduy, Col. C. P.
Ball thoughtfully tendering the use
of his private car to the heart-broken
husband and mother, Sirs. E. J.
Bobo, for their sad home-coming. A
large number of sorrowing friends
met tho party at the station, and the
remains were taken at tonce to St.
James Episcopal church, where they
remained until tho funeral service at
3 p. in.
In accordance with tho wishes of
the deceased, tho funeral was simple
nnd unostentatious. The beautiful
buriul service of tho Episcopal church
was read at tho gravo by Rev. Geo.
E. Benedict, and all that wus mortnl
of this excellent Indy was consigned
to its last resting place In tho pres
ence of a lurgo concourse of sympa
thizing friends.
Cedurtown has lost in this death
one of her brightest and most be
loved Indies. She wus born in Spar
tanburg, S. 0., Dec. 4th, 1804, and ns
Bliss Emma Bobo was united In
murringo on Nov. 17th, 1887, with
Dr. B. F. Sims. They came to Ce-
dnrtown immediately after their
marriage, nnd this has been their
home ever since. A ludy of attrac
tive personality, bright intellect nnd
cultured tastes, sho wns naturally a
social leader, nnd had a large circle
of warm friends who will sorely
miss her.
Thu husband nnd two sweet little
daughters of ton and twelvo years
are left to mourn the loss of a de
voted wife nnd mother, nnd tho one
tiro community sympathizes deeply
with thorn In their great bereavo-
ment.
