Yancey This estimable lady breathed her last on yesterday morning, at 9 o'clock at the residence of her son, Capt. G. H. Yancey, in this city. She had for a long time been an invalid, but bore her suffering with Christian fortitude. Mrs. Yancey was one of the nobles ladies we ever knew. She was a Miss Earle, of Greenville, S. C., and belonged to one of the first families of the Palmetto State. She was married to Hon. William L. Yancey, one of the South's most distinguished sons and purest statesman, and shortly after her marriage moved to Alabama, where she lived until the death of her husband, since which time, we believe, she has been residing with her children. Mrs. Yancey was a true and devoted wife, and affectionate mother, a kind friend, and an humble and sincere Christian. She leaves a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn her loss, to whom we extend our heart-felt sympathy.
