Yesterday Evening at Seven
O’clock—Funeral Services
To-morrow Morning.
Ytsserday evening at a quart-r past
seven o’clock Mrs. Elis,bath Ann Hii
breathed her last at her home on Pnl-
acki street.
F r several months this aged pilgrim
Lad been wasting sway uni.r thr
eficciB of old age coupled with
dise.se, and her loving family h-»d
watched with faithful care for the re
turn of health.
Yesterday she sank rapidly and no
human effort availed to save, and sur
rounded by her near rel itives and
friends ah * p »s*d peso fully into the
great beyond.
Mrs. Hill was one of the Classic
City’s oldest citizens, and for over half
a century had lived here. 8he was
born on the 10th day of Jan-
nary, 1810, in Oglethorpe oonnty, -and

four years of age.
In 1835 she was married to Hr. Blan
ton M. Hill, and dnring the same year
connected herself with the Methodist
churoh of whioh she was a faithful
member to the hoar of her death-
One of her life-long friends speaking
of her last night said that no higher
tribute could be paid to her character
than to say that dnring all her life she
never knowingly wronged a human be
ing. Kind, gentle, and affectionate, she
left her impress on the oharaoters of all
who came in contact with her and knew
her well.
Mrs. Hill leaves three children to
mourn her death, Mrs. Georgia Strong,
of Aberdeen, Miss., Mrs. A. H. Noble,
of this city, and Mrs R H Johnston, !
Manchester.
Her oldest son, Col A. A F. Hill, wa*
once editor of TRe Athens Banseb,
and was op to ffa? time of her death h
well-known oitizen of A b me.
Her son, MaJ r Blax-on A. Hill was
killed while engaged in tbe battle of
D?ep Bottom, Vi., in August 1884.
Tbe funeral oe Mrs. Hill takes place
tomorrow morning at eleven o’clook
from tbe First Methodist churoh of
whioh she was so long's member.
To the bereaved relatives in this sad
hour, tbe sympathies of aU are ex
tended.

not rest well Tuesday night and Wednes

supposed crisis has arrived at last.
Consul general Crittendon is not satis
fied with the daily bulletins, and has
asked for four reports every day until
all danger is past or the end comes. The
hearts of the watchers are very anxious,
as Mr. Wilson is so very weak that his
life seems to hang by a very slender
thread. Guadalajara authorities keep
the vicinity of the hotel where Mr. Wil
