Mother of Lou Ella Brewer
OBIT: The Monroe News-Star November 9, 1910. Never was the community more shocked than by the announcement this morning of the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Barkdull Brewer of Atlanta, GA, which occurred suddenly yesterday evening at 6:30 at the home of her brother-in-law, Dr. Robert W.Faulk, from a stroke of paralysis, with which she was stricken at about 3:30. Mrs. Brewer had only arrived Saturday last to make her annual visit and had anticipated spending the winter in Monroe among old friends, and was apparently enjoying the best of health without the slightest intimation of the attack, but while out walking in the neighborhood. Mrs. Ruffin, the family servant, summoned Dr. Faulk over the phone, and with aid of Mrs. George Sellman, began to work and work rapidly, realizing the gravity of the situation. All efforts of physician and friends failed to have any effect. After an illness of only two hours Mrs. Brewer breathed her last. Mrs. Brewer was the widow of Dr. Thomas O. Brewer, who during his life was one of Monroe's most prominent physicians and progressive business men. Mrs. Brewer leaves to mourn her death an only daughter, Mrs J.V. Stanley of Anadarko, (Caddo Co) Oklahoma; two sisters, Miss Minnie Barkdull and Mrs. H.P. Aubrey (Louise Ella Barkdull) of Fort Smith, Sebastian County, AR; two brothers, Leonidas Polk Barkdull of Fort Smith, and James D. Barkdull, Jr of Natchez, Adams Co, MS; her nieces, Misses Agatha, Florence and Louise Faulk, and nephew, Mr. Barkdull Faulk, the children of Dr. Robert Faulk. A phone communication with her daughter, Mrs. Stanley from Chickasaw, OK, where she was attending with the Rev. Stanley, the State Methodist Conference, stated that they would take the midnight train out which will enable them to reach Monroe in the morning. All funeral arrangements have been deferred until Mrs. Stanley arrives.

At Rest - This afternoon at three thirty o'clock at the Presbyterian church, from the residence of her brother-in-law, Dr. Robert W. Faulk, was held the funeral services of Mrs. Elizabeth Barkdull Brewer of Atlanta, Ga., who passed away so suddenly on Monday afternoon. The obsequies were delayed awaiting the arrival of her daughter, Mrs. J.V. Stanley, of Oklahoma, who with Reverend Mr. Stanley arrived last evening. The services were conducted by Reverend C.S. Newman, who paid a tribute to the noble Christian character of one who for years has been a true disciple of Christ, living the life of her religion, portraying it in every thought and deed, never questioning the wisdom of God's judgment in the sorrows or trials of life that befell her, but with a spirit of love realize that whom "God Loveth he chasteneth." Beautiful was the song service, only those hymns specially dear to Mrs. Brewer were sung. "Safe in the Arms of Jesus" and "Asleep in Jesus," being those she liked most. After the church services the remains were followed to the cemetery by a large concourse of friends and laid to rest by the side of Dr. Brewer, who preceded her only a few short years, and as the mound was covered with the most beautiful of flowers, though "Asleep in Jesus," many were the heartaches for the only daughter bereft so suddenly of a mother's love. The pall bearers were Messrs. A.B. Tissington, H. Gregg, J. Arthur Smith, F.P. Stubbs, G.P. Stubbs, W.E. Allen.
