Daughter of Benjamin Bright and Jennette Annis Baker Brown. Addie married Edward Brown Foxworth on June 26, 1892.
In Memoriam.
Died, at two o'clock Wednesday afternoon, February 24, 1904, Leola Baker, wife of E. B. Foxworth, in the thirtieth year of her age.
The sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Foxworth, as stated above, rapidly spread in all the Centenary neighborhood and to regions wherever she was known, and it carried unfeigned sorrow into many hearts. Her brief illness was a fact not generally known and the suddenness of the announcement of her demise only enhanced the sadness of the unexpected end.
For well-nigh a score of years she had been a member of Centenary church, and she practiced in every-day life the virtues of the religion she professed. In all the community in which she lived she bore the reputation of being a good woman, a Christian, and she was unpolluted in speech and conduct.
For a decade she was the wife of Mr. E. B. Foxworth, and she was ever a faithful, loving help meet for her husband. Five children, three boys and two girls, survive their mother, who was to them always tender, gentile and affectionate, training them in the faith which was her strength during life and her solace in death.
Mrs. Foxworth was Miss Leola Baker, a daughter of Mr. B. B. Baker. She was widely connected in Marion county and her friends were numerous. She is pleasantly remembered as a girl, was admired as a miss, and beloved as a matron. Truly a light which shone brilliantly for the brief time it was allowed to, was she, and as it dimmed and died away upon earth's shore, it was but moving out upon the sea of eternity, making its way to that celestial haven where it will reflect the glorious rays of the Sun of Righteousness.

DEADLY WORK OF A BRASS PIN
A Lady Who Pricked A Fever Blister With It Died Of Blood Poisoning
MARION - Mrs E B Foxworth is dead as the result of picking a fever blister with a brass pin. She was apparently in good health when a small blister appeared on her lip and she picked it with a pin, after which it festered and blood poisoning followed. She suffered a great deal until death relieved her.
Mrs Foxworth was Miss Leola Baker, and lived in the Centenary neighborhood, about 12 miles from Marion. She was a noble hearted Christian woman. Her unexpected death has cast a gloom over the community and caused sorrow in many hearts.
