MRS. S. J. BARTON DEAD
The friends of
the family were deeply pained on Sunday afternoon by the announcement of the
death of Mrs. Sam J. Barton. Deceased had been ill for about three weeks but it
was not generally known that her condition was serious.
Prior to her marriage she was Miss Maggie
E. King, and leaves a large family connection. The remains were interred in the
cemetery this afternoon at 3 o’clock, services being conducted at the residence
on Commerce Street.
A large concourse of friends and relatives
followed the remains to their final resting place. The pallbearers were Geo. E.
Sanders, E. M. Eddins, T. J. Kemper, W. J. Freddie, G. L. Viridet and S. R.
Hemphill.
