We regret to learn of the death of
Mrs. Will Davis, which occurred at her
home near Locuct Grove last Wednes
day, the 26fh iust. Her death was very
sudden. She retired the night previ
ous as well as usual and when she
arose next morning to go about her
household affairs she fell back ou her
bed uuconscious and lived but a short
time. She was the daughter of Uncle
Dink Bonner, who lives near this place,
and was just entering into the bloom of
womanhood. She was married to Mr,
Davis about a year ago. Her remains
were laid to rest on the following day
at Indian Creek church. We extend
to the bereaved husband and family
heartfelt sympathy in their sore be
reavement.

ing his mighty hand of. power in tbs
land, and the year 1900 will go down
in history as one of the unusual events,
“The story of the Galveston flood”
gives full details of the terrible storm.
