In the death of Mrs. Fannie Straughn, at the ripe old age of 89 years, at her home on the Andalusia-Rose Hill road, Friday night of last week, one of the landmarks of that community has been removed.

She is survived by two daughters and three sons. The daughters are Mrs. R.S. Jackson, of Opp and Miss Dollie Straughn, of Rose Hill. Sons are A.D. and John Straughn, of Rose Hill and Herbert Straughn, of Dozier.
