4 Jan 1894
The sad news of the accidental death of Mrs. Helen Murphree, wife of Mr. Jesse Murphree, the postmaster of Walnut Grove, Etowah county Ala.
It appears that she got in a buggy to visit some friends and neighbors. The horse scared at something, throwing her out against a tree, crushing her skull and breaking her neck. Death was almost instantaneous.
Mrs. Murphree was a most estimable lady, nearly sixty years old, and have been a zealous member of the Baptist church. We deeply sympathize with her aged husband and children in this sad bereavement. May a merciful Lord comfort them and may they yield to the will of Him who doeth all for the best.
