She was forty-seven years old and was a noble Christain woman, and having been reared in Barnesville as Miss Elder, she had scores of warm, personal friends among the people of the community. She was unusually bright and happy and from her youth up, drew many admiring friends and companions.
After the death of her husband she moved back to Barnesville and has since made this her home. She is survived by two daugthers, Miss Nell Adams and Maud Adams, sister, Mrs S K Cook; and three brothers, Edward Elder, Euce Elder, and Emmett Elder.
She was a member of the Methodist Church and was a shining example of a bright, cheerful, useful Christian worker.
