The sufferings of Mrs. E.B. Lauderdale, of Bright community, who had been a bed-ridden invalid for more than a year, ended with her death Tuesday morning about eleven o'clock at her home. Had she lived until some date in next October she would have reached the 85th anniversary of her birth.

More than 84 years ago she was born in Miffling, Tenn., the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. P.B. Cobb. In 1872 she was united in marriage to Mr. E.B. Lauderdale. Several children were born to the couple; those surviving being Messrs. J.C. Lauderdale, D.R. Lauderdale, Edward Lauderdale, Mrs. R.M. Lusher, all of this county, and Mrs. W.A. Johnston of Little Rock, Ark.
Mrs. Lauderdale was a loveable character and all who came to know her became her friends and learned to value her worth. Her influence was always for good, and was felt by all with whom she came in contact. She was a devoted mother and wife and leaves with her loved ones dear memories of kindness, gentleness, and loving attention that time can never efface. Truly a good woman is gone who lived a life of usefulness and high purpose.

The funeral took place Wednesday forenoon at 10 o'clock, conducted by Rev. F.H. McGee, of Hernando. A large number followed her to her resting place.

The husband, Mr. E.B. Lauderdale, an old and honored citizen of the county, survives her.
