LIFE'S CURTAIN DOWN FOR THREE AGED LADIES

Mrs. M. Carithers, Widow of Shelbyville's Pioneer Carriage Manufacturer

Mrs. Martha Carithers, one of this city's well-known aged residents, passed away at her home on east Polk street at one-fifteen o'clock Sunday afternoon. Her death followed an illness of several weeks and was due to complications incident to her advanced age. She was seventy-seven years old and had been almost a life-long resident of this city. She was a member of the First Presbyterian church and was a devout, lovable Christian. She had numerous friends in the city and county, who will be saddened by the news of her death. She was the widow of the late Moses Carithers, who died six years ago last September. They came to this city when it was little more than a village and Mr. Carithers was the first carriage manufacturer in Shelbyille.

Mrs. Carithers is survived by three children, Miss Anna, Frank and Lee B. Carithers, all of this city.

The funeral services will be held at the house at three-thirty oclock Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Earl R. North, pastor of the First Presbyterian church officiating, and the interment will be made in Forest Hill cemetery in charge of Ralph J. Edwards.
