Mrs. Anna R. Alford, widow of the late B. S. Alford, died at the family residence in South Broadway Tuesday evening at 8:45 o'clock. Funeral services were held from the LaBranch Street Methodist Church Wednesday at 3:30 o'clock P.M.
A large number of friends and acquaintances of the family were present at the funeral services, which were in charge of the Rev. Mr. E. H. Cooley, pastor of the LaBranch Street Church. He was assisted by several of the ministers of this city and Rev. Mr. W. H. Lewis of Brookhaven.
Mrs. Alford, who was 83 years old, is survived by one sister, Mrs. T. S. Curtis of this city; one daughter, Mrs. Carrie Hayes of New Orleans; five sons, J. B. Alford, Norman Alford and L. W. Alford, all well known business men of this city, and A. C. Alford of Greenville and the Rev. L. E. Alford of Crystal Springs.
Mrs. Alford was a native of Pike County, having been born and reared here. For many years she was a faithful member of the LaBranch Street Methodist Church and her death has left a vacancy in the community that cannot be filled. The sympathy of the entire city goes out to the bereaved ones.
Mrs. Alford's husband, the late B. S. Alford, died February 5 of this year. At the time of their death they had been married almost sixty-two years.
