Mrs. Dorcas HUDKINS, wife of ex-County Commissioner, John C. HUDKINS, died on the night of the 17th inst. with scarcely a warning of the approach of death. For several years she had suffered with heart disease but was as well as usual when she retired the evening of her death. About midnight she gently awoke her husband and informed him that she must die and before the other members of the family could reach her bedside she was dead. Deceased was the mother of twelve children, seven of whom are living, a faithful member of the Baptist church and a noble wife and saintly mother. Rev. BRAGG conducted the funeral service at the Kewanna Baptist church in the presence of a large and sorrowful congregation.
