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.
