The Monroe Republican, November 15, 1901
DIED
HILLIARD--Died, Monday morning, Nov. 11th, in her sixty fourth year, Martha, wife of James R. Hilliard; interment took place at Columbus. Grandma Hilliard was a true christian woman, kind to all who became acquainted with her. For the past year she had been confined to her home by illness which caused her much suffering from which she was relieved by death. None will miss her as those who waited upon her day and night for she was always of a cheerful disposition and was continually looking forward to the day when she was to cross the dark beyond where all must go. The husband and children have the sincere sympathy of all, for no loss can be greater than that of a true and affectionate wife and mother. May she rest in peace as her life's work was well done. [Oconee.]
