DEATH OF MRS. DAVIS

Mrs. Mary Davis, wife of Pleasant H. Davis, died at her home here Friday morning, at two o'clock, after an illness of two months. Mrs. Davis had a wise acquaintance and many there be who sincerely mourn her death. She possessed many beautiful attributes of character, chief among which was her charity to the poor and her generous hospitality.

The funeral services were held Sunday afternoon, at 2 o'clock, at the residence in Main street, when the Rev. H. R. Truitt, of the First Christian church, delivered the funeral discourse.

Mrs. Ed Mason, Mrs. W. H. Porter, Messrs. Mahlon Gebhart and Frank Geisler sang, 'Rock of Ages,' 'Beautiful Isle of Somewhere' and 'Will There be Any Stars in My Crown?'

The bearers, nephews of the deceased, were Dr. Frank Brant, Walter Simpson, Martin Abbott, Oliver Peed, Homer Noe and Ernest Hutchison. Burial was made in the Brick Church cemetery. The funeral cortege consisted of a long line of automobiles filled with relatives and friends.

There probably was never a more magnificent display of floral tributes here than that at the home where the body of Mrs. Davis lay in state. Flowers, in bouquets and formed in emblems, were banked about the casket, and about the room, and later were placed over and about the burying place, a beautiful but sad expression of the sympathy expressed for the bereaved family, and of the high esteem in which she was held.

Mrs. David leaves her husband, two sons, Clifford and Walter Foutz, one sister, Mrs. Clara Brant, and three brothers, B. F. Abbott, of Richmond, Charles Abbott, of Wabash, and William Abbott.
