Death Claimed Sunday Mrs. Sallie Trussell
From infirmities of old age, Mrs. Sallie Trussell passed away at her home in Butler about the hour of mid-night Saturday night. While her death was not unexpected, yet the announcement of her passing caused grief to many hearts not only here but elsewhere. Had she lived until August she would have been eighty-two years of age, having been born in this county on August 24, 1842, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Peed, who after having lived to a ripe old age died many years ago.
The Herald has frequently made mention of the feeble condition of the good woman during the past four years, and has constantly sympathized with the family each member of which, together with skilled physicians, have extended every effort for her comfort and existence, but there was no scheme for her recovery, so He who governs our destines saw fit to take the sufferer's spirit to that home prepared for all such Christians as was Mrs. Trussell.
While a younger woman she was united in marriage to Mr. O. L. Trussell with whom she lived happily until in 1897 when he was summoned by death.
Mrs. Trussell had been a member of the Methodist Church for more than sixty years and her long life was one of beauty, love and usefulness, exemplifying her religion in her everyday life. She was one of the oldest women in the county and one of the most esteemed.
Impressive funeral services were held for Mrs. Trussell at Camp Ground Methodist Church Monday morning at 11 o'clock, Rev. O. L. Kelley, pastor of the deceased, conducting the service, interment of remains being made in the cemetery near-by. The pall bearers were her grandsons to whit: Messrs. O. O. cooper, W. H. Trussell, Jr., Sankie Trussell, C. H. Trussell, G. A. Trussell and W. M. Trussell.
Surviving Mrs Trussell are two sons, Messrs. W. H. and J. E. Trussell of this place; two daughters, Mrs. J. T. Pridgeon, of Dawson; and Mrs. Berta Trussell, of Butler; besides a number of grandchildren, many relatives and a host of admiring friends.
In their hour of great sorrow The Herald tenders the stricken children and dear loved ones assurance of its tenderest sympathy.
