[Harmony] - A gloom of sadness has rested upon this entire community since the death of Mrs. Henry Gray which occurred Sunday morning at about ten o'clock, after an illness of two weeks of appendicitis. Monday of last week an operation was performed which it was greatly hoped would prove successful and she seemed to be doing well until Saturday when she was taken suddenly worse and in twenty-four hours death ensued. She was fifty-four years, four months and twenty-one days old. Mrs. Gray was possessed of a cheerful disposition and bore her suffering patiently and talked calmly to those who gathered about the bedside when she knew she could not recover. For many years she had been a member of the Free Baptist church of the place and lived a consistent christian life. She was also a member of the Harmony Woman's Christian Temperance Union and was greatly esteemed and beloved by all who knew her. Upon the home circle this great and sudden bereavement falls with a crushing weight, which seems almost unbearable. She leaves a husband, two daughters, Mrs. Ina Holmes and Ethel Gray, one sister, Mrs. Richard Cary and three brothers, William, Farin and Henry Osborn, besides a large circle of other relatives and friends to mourn her loss. Funeral services were held at the house Tuesday at eleven o'clock, Rev. J. C. Steel officiating. The interment was in the cemetery in this place where many of her friends and relatives are buried.
