Mrs. Free Raymond died last Monday night, Oct. 18, 1909, after a run of typhoid fever. We all thought she was recovering, but she hurt one of her fingers in some way, causing blood poison. She leaves a husband and two sons. She was a good and loving wife and mother, and was loved and respected by all of her friends and neighbors. Funeral services took place on Thursday afternoon at the church, Rev. Hendren officiating. The remains were laid to rest in the Christie Cemetery. The family has the sympathy of the entire neighborhood.
