Death of Mrs. A.B. Springs
The Charlotte (N.C.) Observer in speaking of the death of Mrs. Springs, mother of our townsman A.C. Springs, which occurred on the 27th of February says:
“Mrs. Springs was a daughter of the late Judge E.H. Baxter of Hancock county, Ga., and was born at the Baxter homestead, near Sparta, February 15th, 1826. She was married to Col. A. Baxter Springs on February 15th, 1850, and after her marriage lived with her husband, at his plantation at Springfield, York county, S.C., until 1875, when she came to this city, and resided here until the time of her death. Her husband died in 1886.
Five sons and one daughter survive the deceased. These are Mr. Eli B. Springs, of this city; Mr. R.A. Springs, of New York; Mr. Alva C. Springs, of El Reno, Okla.; Mr. Brevard D. Springs, of Charlotte; Col. Leroy Springs, of Lancaster, S.C., and Mrs. John M. Scott, of Charlotte.
Mrs. Springs was known to almost everybody in this city and was beloved by a large circle of friends. She had much strength of character, and, being in touch with the lives of many people, showed always sympathetic interest. She did, unostentatiously, a great deal of good; harbored kindness; and her Christianity was practical and beneficial. She was by birth, and ever in personality, a pronounced type of the Southern woman, the Southern lady. Naturally, and by creed, she emphasized family love, birth ties, and was notably fine in this relation.
For many years the deceased was a member of the First Presbyterian church of this city.”
