DEATH SUMMONS EUNICE ABBOTT
Death summoned on of Charleston's most respected citizens Tuesday night at 10:10 o'clock when Mrs. Eunice Abbott passed away at her home, 420 North Tenth street following an illness of two months, although her condition had been considered critical for only the past week. Death is attributed to heart trouble and dropsy.

Mrs. Abbott had been in poor health for the past several months but her condition had never been alarming. She had been confined to her bed for the past two months. Last Friday a decided change for the worst was apparent and since that time little hope for her recovery had been entertained by the bereaved relatives.

Mrs. Abbott was born at New Albany, Ind., September 1852, the daughter of John and Mariah Hines, both of whom preceeded her to the death many years ago. On June 6, 1877, she was united in marriage to John Abbott and to this union six children were born, two of whom survive. They are Robert Abbott, of Mattoon, and Clarence Abbott, of Charleston. One sister, Mrs. James Farrier, of Hindsboro, and three brothers, Robert Hines of Danville, Thos. Hines of Terre Haute, and William Hines of Elmira, Ark. also survive to mourn the death of a loving mother and sister.

The deceased was a lifelong member of the First Christian Church and soon after coming to Charleston more than twenty-nine years ago, she became an active worker in the church to which she was affiliated.

Mrs. Abbott was well known in Charleston and very few women made a deeper impression than she. She was a good Christian woman, loved by all who came in contact with her, and known as a woman who was always prepared to assist those in need. She was not a member of any fraternal organization.

Funeral services will be held at the late residence Thursday morning at 9:30 o'clock and burial will be made in Mound cemetery. Rev. Horn, pastor of the First Christian church, will conduct the services.
