Mrs. Cynthia Sheppard died Tuesday afternoon, November 23, at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Oscar Wilson, at the age of 100 years,
9months and 8 days.

Grandma, as she was lovingly called by every one, was universally known and loved and while she attained an age seldom reached, she was still active and cheerful up to a few months ago, when she fell and broke her hip, and since then she has suffered intensely, but always without a murmur.

Funeral services were conducted at the residence Wednesday afternoon by Rev. Mr. Carraway, after which the tired old body was tenderly laid to rest in the Blooming Grove cemetery.

The passing of this good woman marks the end of a long and useful life, and with out meagre information we will not attempt to comment upon it this week, but next week we hope to have an article befitting this worthy and noble character.
