Last Saturday afternoon, at about 3 o'clock, Mrs. Caroline Butler Pryor, wife of Judge James Pryor, of Covington, died at the residence of Dr. L. X. Taylor, of this place, aged 86 years, 11 months, and 13 days.

She recently came here on account of the illness of her brother, Mr. Richard P. Butler, whose death we mentioned last week. The loss of her brother, no doubt, had much to do with her violent illness, but she had been quite feeble for some months. The cause of her death was paralysis. She was stricken a few days after Mr. Butler's death and it was at once evident that she could not recover.

Funeral services were held Monday at the Presbyterian church, by Rev. S. W. Blain, of Louisville, assisted by Rev. W. McD. Abbett, of this place. The interment took place in the Butler burying ground near town. Mrs. Pryor was the last member of the remarkable and famous family of Butlers.
