She had predicted her death but no one else realized her condition. She was a sincere Christian and a devoted wife and mother and was resigned to death. She gave her infant daughter, only 11 days old, to her sister, Mrs M R MADDOX, and the other children to their aunt, Miss Victoria GRIGGS, who will send them to school at Macland. Mrs GRIGGS was Miss Asilee MADDOX and was only 38 years old. Beside her husband she left six children, Archie Lee, Lola, David, Julia, Blanche, and Asilee. The funeral was at Macland on Friday morning conducted by Rev G V CROW and Rev F R JENKINS. The hymns were "God Will Take Care of You," "Nearer My God to Thee," "Abide With Me," and "Jesus Lover of My Soul." The pall bearers wee J R, M A and C J GRIGGS, Walton, M R and Jones MADDOX. Among the flowers were designs in white roses from the Elizabeth school, the staff of the Industrial Life Insurance Co of Atlanta and friends of her brother, Mr Jones MADDOX, known as the McCleskey House boys.
