MRS HALL BLAKE PASSES AWAY
		------------
Her Death Resulted After an Illness of More Than a Year
		------------

Mrs. Evie Copeland Blake, beloved wife of Hall C. Blake, a well known business 
man of this city, died Friday night at 9 o’clock at the family residence on 
West Holmes street, after an illness of several months with cancer of the 
stomach.  Her health had been failing for about a year and during that time 
she had been under treatment of the best physicians here and in other cities 
but the efforts of all were unavailing and her condition gradually became 
worse until the end.

Mrs. Blake was before marriage Miss Evie Copeland and she was forty years 
old.  She is survived by her husband, mother Mrs. M. Copeland, three brothers, 
Thomas Copeland, and E. H. Copeland, of Huntsville and Ollie Copeland of New 
York, and four sisters, Mrs. Hans Shuz, Mrs. Hinds Campbell, and Mrs. Robert 
Sadler of Huntsville and Mrs. Joe Hester of Columbia, Tenn.  There are no 
children.

Mrs. Copeland had been a life-long member of the First Methodist church and 
was active in the work of that organization.  She possessed a loveable, sweet 
character and her death carries sorrow to the hearts of a great many friends 
here and elsewhere.

The funeral will be conducted from the Blake home at 4 o’clock this afternoon 
by Rev. J. R. Turner and Rev. J. J. Johnson and interment will be in Maple 
Hill Cemetery.  The following gentle will act as pall bearers; R. P. Weeden, 
R. E. Spragins, Robert Harrison, Wm. Hutchens, Thos. T. Terry, and Henry C. 
Pollard.

Among the relatives and friends who are here to attend the funeral are Mrs. 
Charles Hamlet of Tuscumbia, formerly Miss Lizzie Couch; Mrs. Walter Johnson 
of Decatur, formerly Miss Lula Couch, and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Hester of Columbia, 
Tenn.
