Mrs. Kate McClain, wife of Ed. McClain, who had been seriously ill for the past month, was relieved from her suffering by death Thursday morning, June 4, 1903. Her malady was cancer of the liver, and as a last resort she was operated upon a month ago, but it was beyond the power of surgery or medicine to cure her and she lingered, growing weaker from day to day, until death came as a welcome relief. She was 56 years of age and had been twice married, her first husband, Abraham Cable, dying 17 years ago. She is survived by eight children. Interment will be made today in the Tucker burying ground. The sorrowing family have the sympathy of the entire community.
