Death of Miss Stella Spurlin
  Miss Stella Spurlin, of Camden, Wilcox County, Alabama, died 
yesterday in the Inge-Bondurant Sanitarium, after an illness of a 
year's duration. Miss Spurlin was born in Camden November 11, 1865. 
She was of a sunny disposition and bore with remarkable fortitude her 
affliction. In her years of health she devoted much of her time to the 
study of literature and of music, excelling as a musician, and 
composing several much admired works. She was the daughter of Colonel 
and Mrs. W. F. Spurlin. A brother, Rev. W. D. Spurlin, of Monroe, La., 
also mourns her loss. Mr. Spurlin arrived here from Louisiana just 
before his sister's death. The remains were taken to Camden yesterday 
on the steamer City of Mobile, and will be laid to rest Tuesday in the 
family cemetery.  -- Mobile Register of Sunday.

  Miss Stelia Spurlin who had been in bad health for some time, went to 
the Inge-Bondurant Sanitarium for treatment and in a few days her 
parents were wired to come at once, but she died about the time the 
train got to Mobile, and her remains arrived Monday evening, and was 
interred here Tuesday morning. 
  We extend to her family our sympathy as does the balance of our 
community.
