Mrs. D. E. Long, wife of Mr. J. I. Long, died at her home on Benton Heights, Thursday, from bronchial pneumonia at 1:35 p. m. She had been in bad health for some time but had been confined to her bed for only eight days. Mrs. Long was the daughter of the late John Love of Goose Creek township, and is survived by her husband, Mr. J. I. Long and her children, C. A. and Curtis Long, Mesdames Jane Tice and F. H. Austin, her three brothers, Messrs W. A., T. L. and J. W. Love.

Mrs. Long was 64 years old. She was married to Mr. Long forty-three years ago, and her married life was both pleasant and useful.

She joined the Methodist church at Zion in 1867, and though she moved to Monroe some 20 years ago she never has lost interest in her old home church and its members, for she continued to contribute by her means and influence to its support and good work until her death. She was buried at Zion Methodist church Saturday at noon, and the funeral services were conducted by Rev. M. T. Steele.

Mrs. Long was a good woman and her life was spent in teaching and instructing her children. She belonged to that class of mothers who forget the outside world and live for those entrusted to her care. She was faithful and consistent and had lived a simple christian mother.
