PASSES AWAY AT MT. LAKE
DEATH OF MRS. HAYMOND MONDAY MORNING IN THE PRESENCE OF SEVERAL OF HER RELATIVES.
PASSES AWAY AFTER SERIOUS ILLNESS OF DROPSY-WENT THERE THREE WEEKS AGO HOPING TO BE BENEFITED.
Deceased Was Member of Prominent Family and Ancestry Was Distinguished- Remains To Be Brought Home and Funeral Held at Family Residence.
The sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Madisonia Gittings Haymond from dropsy at Mt. Lake Park, reached here by wire Monday morning. The deceased went there three weeks ago in failing health, it being hoped that the change of climate would improve her health, but she became no better and at 7.55 o'clock Monday morning death came to relieve her sufferings.
At her bedside, when death came, were her brother, Prof. John Gittings, sisters; Mrs. H. A. G. Fernald, Mrs. Columbia Thorn, niece, Miss Florence Thorn, and a nurse.
The remains, accompanied by the relatives will likely arrive here on No. 3 Tuesday morning and be taken to her late home.
The deceased was the wife of Col. Luther Haymond, the aged and retired banker of this city. She was the daughter of Dr. M. D. and Sophia (Jackson) Gittings, who moved from Maryland in 1829 to Morgantown, this state, and later settled in Harrison county, where the father died in 1887.
The family resided for a short time in Ohio, but finally returned to Clarksburg and here the mother also died. The children of the Gittings family were John, James, Alice, Ellen, Allen, Mary, Madisonia and Columbia. William and Ellen were by a former marriage of Mr. Gittings. She was a great-grand daughter of Governor Meigs, one of the first governors of Ohio, and also a grand-daughter of Judge John. G. Jackson. Her age was 71 years.
In 1878 she married Col. Haymond, becoming his second wife. But of this union there were no children.
The surviving brothers are Prof. John Gittings, of this city, and James Gittings, in Ohio, and the sisters living are Mrs. Mary Fernald, of West Milford, and Mrs. Columbia Thorn, of this city.
The aged husband also survives, to whom the death of Mrs. Haymond is a severe shock. Being in infirm health he was not able to be at her bedside in her fatal illness.
The deceased was a devout member of Christ Episcopal church and one of its active workers for many years. She was an estimable and beloved lady, and the community is saddened over the announcement of her demise.
Funeral arrangements have not been made as yet and will not be until after the remains arrive home. It is likely the obsequies will be held Wednesday.
