Burial of Mrs. John Y, Braden This Morning—Funeral of Mrs. Rogers.
The remains of Mrs. J. Y. Braden, who died suddenly several days ago at her home north of the city, were brought to Decatur this morning. The funeral was held from the Edward Street Christian church at 11 o'clock. The services were largely attended and were conducted by Rev. Marion Stevenson the pastor. The burial was at Greenwood cemetery.

Mrs. J.Y. Braden, one of the oldest settlers of Macon county, died suddenly Monday afternoon at her home one mile north of Decatur. She had not been well for several days past. About 1 o'clock in the afternoon,, Mrs. Braden sent her hired man, Samuel Campbell, to the residence of her son, one mile away, for some medicine. When Campbell returned, he found Mrs. Braden dead. Since the death of her husband, she has made her home alone on the farm.
Mrs. Braden was 78 years of age and was a native of Vermont, where she was born in 1819. She was married to the late J.Y. Braden on January 23, 1840, and is survived by four sons and two daughters. They are J.E., Jerome O., J.G. and A. Braden, Mrs. Flora Bear and Mrs.Cora A. Dill.
Mrs. Braden came to this state many years ago and was widely known. She was a Christian woman and was highly esteemed by those who knew her. The time of her funeral has not yet been decided upon.
This morning Deputy Coroner Roy Bendure held an inquest over the remains. Three witnesses were examined. They were John Braden, Samuel Campbell and Daniel Baum. The jury returned a verdict that Mrs. Braden had come to her death by heart disease superinduced by exertion and worry at the time of her husband's death.
