GRIM REAPER CALLS - Mrs. Mary E. Hendricks Died Last Saturday Afternoon at 3:30 O'Clock
Ill for Months - Injuries Received from a Fall of a Week Ago Hastened Her Demise
Mrs. Mary E. Hendricks, late widow of Bazil Hendricks, of Monroe, who since the death of her husband has resided with her only son, James Hendricks, agent at the Monroe G. R. & I. depot and candidate for county commissioner, died last Saturday afternoon between the hours of three and four o'clock, death being caused by general debility resulting from injuries sustained from a fall, together with the infirmities of old age. The deceased lived to be seventy-six years and three days old and her life has been one of usefulness. October 31, 1856, the deceased who was then the widow of Henry Hower, was united in the holy bonds of wedlock to Bazil Hendricks. To this union were born five children, three of who survive to mourn the departure of a loving mother. Mrs. Hendricks has been failing in health for some time and responsive to her old age, the infirmities characteristic thereto had caused her gradual decline, which in connection with the results of a fall she sustained one week ago, hastened the coming of the death angel. The funeral services were held from the M. E. church this afternoon at one-thirty o'clock, Rev. Jones officiated. The death of this noble woman has caused most poignant sorrow. The surviving children are James A. Hendricks, Mrs. Hattie Sells and Mrs. Arbaugh, who are joined by a multitude of sorrowing friends in their hour of bereavement.
