The Havre Plaindealer (MT), 4 May 1907
Mrs. Henrietta McDonald, Passes to Final Resting Place
The unwelcome intelligence has been received here of the death of Mrs. Henrietta Alston Bacon McDonald, the venerable mother of Major John B. McDonald, 15th U. S. Cavalry.
When Major McDonald was quarter master 10th Cavalry and stationed at Fort Assinniboine, his mother first visited the post and by her agreeable personality endeared herself to a large circle of friends, subsequently, when her son returned to serve at Fort Assinoboine as captain an quartermaster 3rd Cavalry, his mother made another visit, being affectionately welcomed by those who had enjoyed the privilege of forming her acquaintance before and adding to her number of friends in this vicinity who were fortunate to meet with her at that period.
Mrs. McDonald was a most estimable woman, dignified, yet kindly, an engaging conversationalist, amiable and gentle in her disposition and deportment she impressed her acquaintances by the charm of her manner and the force of her intellectuality.
Her death occurred March 31st. Her remains were interred in Linwood cemetery, Columbus, Georgia, April 2. The Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Confederacy, both of the societies of which Mrs. McDonald was a member, attended the funeral.
The bereaved family have they sympathy of a large number of friends in this locality who trust that they may be sustained and comforted in their grief by the consolation of hope.
