The death of another one of the oldest residents of this county occurred Wednesday, when the spirit of Mrs. Kitura Cardiff passed from earth at her home in Harp township at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Isaac Robinson. She had been a sufferer for many years from gall stones and Friday a severe attack came, lasting until her death. The funeral services took place yesterday from the M. E. church in DeWitt, conducted by Rev. Howard, after which the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery adjoining that town.

The deceased was 71 years old and was born in Virginia in 1833. She professed religion when about 15 years old and had ever since been faithful to her master's cause. The family moved to this state when she was quite young, settling in this county. She had always been a very active worker in the Christian cause, and her presence will be greatly missed by her co-workers in this work. She was a sister of Capt. J. F. Harrold, of this city.

Four children survive her, Grant Cardiff, of this city, Mrs. Isaac Robinson, O. J. and C. W. Cardiff, of DeWitt.
