Death of Mrs. Lucien Moore
It will be remembered that we stated last week that Dr. W.R. Grissom had accompanied Mrs. Lucien Moore to Louisville, the latter to be operated upon for cystic tumors. Mrs. Moore stood the trip to the city very nicely and Friday morning she went under the knife, the physician being Dr. W.H. Wathen, who removed two tumors, the operation being very successful.
Dr. Grissom returned home Saturday night and Sunday morning the news of Mrs. Moore's death reached Columbia. She lived about thirty hours after the operation. Besides the tumors, Mrs. Moore was otherwise seriously afflicted, and it would have been impossible for her to have lived but a few weeks without an operation. The operation was the last resort to save her life.
The remains were embalmed and shipped to this county Monday morning, and in the afternoon all that was mortal of the deceased was buried in Pleasant Hill cemetery*, after religious exercises.
Mrs. Moore was a daughter of Marion Edrington, who died many years ago. She was also a niece of Gaither Bryant, besides she had many other relatives in Adair county. A large circle of friends attended the funeral exercises and burial, every body in the deepest sympathy for the bereaved husband and motherless little children.
The 1900 Adair County census gives Mrs. Moore's birth year as 1876; states that she & Mr. Moore had been married for two years; and that she was the mother of one child, Everett L., born February, 1899. In October 1909, Mr. Moore married Miss Tennie Williams, the daughter of Drury Alice Williams (Antle.) The Moores removed to Kansas after 1910 and prior to 1918.
-------------------
At her death, the survivors of Ursula C. Edrington Moore were: her husband, Lucian Moore; her son, Everett Lee Moore; her daughters, Nella Rean Moore, Nona Moore, and Mary Eliza Moore; her mother, Mary Margaret Bryant Grider, her sister, Mary Elizabeth Edrington Pierce; her half-brother, Daniel Marion Grider; among other relatives and friends. --ehlII
