She was a student in the schools of the city, having made a splendid record, enjoying the love and esteem of the faculty and student body. Two years ago she was mar ried from her home here and went to reside in Savannah. . Her death has cast a pall of sad ness over the entire city and many friends attended the funeral services to pay their last tribute of love to her who had spent her young life in their midst.
