Mrs. W. T. Rivers, whose serious illness we mentioned last week, died Sunday evening at her home in Union township. Mrs. Rivers had been a sufferer for many months from consumption and her death was not unexpected. She leaves a husband, W. T. Rivers, at one time representative from this county, and five children. She was a woman with a large circle of friends and highly respected by all who knew her. The funeral services occurred Tuesday.
