She was born April 4, 1874, in Charleston, the daughter of Richard Graham and Hannah Cullin. She leaves her husband, James B. Phillips, three brothers, WIlliam Graham of Woodward, Ok., Richard Graham of Little Rock, Ark., John Graham of Indianapolis, and a sister, Mrs. Frank Allender of Los Angeles.
