Mrs. Artimintia Divver Turley died Thursday evening at 5:20 o'clock at her home, 326 West North street, after a brief illness with pneumonia. She was stricken just a week ago and the advanced age made her the more subject to the disease it was not until the first of th present week that hope of recovery was virtually abandoned.

Turley, who passed away Sept. 10, 1895.
