Rison, the beloved wife of Mr. Wm. R. Rison, of this city, died on Monte Sano Aug. 14th, after a short illness. Although she had been in feeble health for some time, the news of her death was a great shock to our citizens, and all join in deep and sincere expressions of sympathy for each member of her bereaved family, especially her husband, who will sadly miss her fond and loving ministrations. Mrs. Rison was a member of the Methodist Church, and was always prominent in church matters, carrying her religion in her daily life, doing good works and charitable acts to the poor and needy. She was ever a devoted and loving mother, a kind and affectionate wife, and loyal friend. She was 61 years old, and died with the blessed hope of the Christian. Funeral services were held at the First Methodist Church, in this city, by Reverends J. M. McCoy and L. C. Branscomb, Saturday afternoon. The large congregation and beautiful floral tributes testifying the esteem in which she was held by all in this community.
