Madison, Sept. 26. _ Special:: Mrs. Mattie A. Cleland died at her home here last Wednesday morning. She was 66 years of age. The news of her death came as a shock to her friends and relatives, as it was not known that she was seriously ill. She had been suffering about a week from disease and the infirmities of age. Mrs. Cleland was Miss Mattie Ann Watt before her marriage to E. Henderson Cleland in 1860. Mrs. Cleland was preceded to the grave only fourteen months by her husband. She is survived by one sister, Mrs G. W. Hunnicutt, of Atlanta; three brothers, Columbus Warr, of Pelzer; Lafayette and Warren Watt; three sons, W. P., J. R. and L. A. Cleland, and one daughter, Mrs. Jeff Jones, all of this place, and one son, W. H. Cleland, of Charlottesville, Va.
Mrs Cleland had been a consistent member of the Baptist church for quite a number of years, and her remains were laid to rest in that cemetery by the side of her husband. The funeral took place Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock, in the presence of a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends. Truly a good woman has gone to her reward. The funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. F. G. Lavender.
