MRS. SUSAN BALDWIN IS CALLED BY DEATH
VENERABLE LADY PASSES AWAY
Aged Mother of Col. Wm. Baldwin Died at His Residence on South Second Street Monday Afternoon
Mrs. Susan M. Baldwin, the venerable mother of Col. William Baldwin, a prominent member of the local bar, died at the home of her son, 620 South Second street, late Monday afternoon. Mrs. Baldwin was in her ninety-first year, and although somewhat feeble on account of her advanced age was able to be up and around the house until a few days prior to her death, when she was seized with an attack of pneumonia. Her weakened condition made it impossible for her to withstand the ravages of the malady, and she grew gradually weaker until the final dissolution took place.
There was no more universally esteemed woman in Columbus than Mrs. Baldwin. Gentle, cultured and refined, she was loved and honored by all who knew her, and her death brings profound sorrow to numerous friends. She was idolized by Col. Baldwin, her son, and his devotion to her was somewhat beautiful. He watched over her with the tenderest care, and during her last illness was constantly at her bedside ministering to her wants. Besides Col. Baldwin, the deceased is survived by another son, Mr. Harris Baldwin of Arizona, and a daughter, Mrs. Martin Teasdale of this city.
The entire community is saddened by the death of this noble woman, and the Commercial joins countless friends in extending to members of the family heartfelt sympathy in their grief.
The funeral occurred at the family residence at four o'clock Tuesday afternoon, having been conducted by Rev. R. B. Eggleston, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Interment was in Friendship cemetery, the honorary pall bearers having been Col. C. L. Lincoln, Col. W. C. Richards, Capt. Wm. Winston, Messrs. R. T. Williams, C. F. Sherrod, and J. M. Street, while those serving in an active capacity were Col. Jno. P. Mayo, Dr. W. W. Westmoreland, Sr., Col. Wm. Rhett, Capt. E. S. Donnell, Mesrs. G. Y. Banks, C. C. Buder, Beverly Hopkins, J. T. Armstrong, J. I. sturdivant, and T. B. Franklin.
