The Marietta Journal  March 19, 1920
Funeral services for Mrs E J SETZE, prominent and beloved Marietta woman, were
conducted Saturday morning at 11 o'clock at the Presbyterian Church, by her
pastor, Dr PATTON.  The pall bearers were her six grand-sons.

Interment was in the City Cemetery.

Mrs SETZE who passed peacefully into rest on Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock was
the daughter of Rev Dr Issac W WADDELL, Sr.  She was the second oldest of eight
children only one of whom is still living, Rev Issac W WADDELL, Jr.

Mrs SETZE was born in Green county, Ga., June 29th, 1834, and was in her 86th
year at the time of her death.  Her father came to Marietta in 1842 and took
charge of the Presbyterian Church, which he continued to serve till called to
rest in October 1849.

She was married to Dr E J SETZE, in 1857.  To them were born eight children,
three girls Cleo Belle (Mrs W R JOYNER), Mary G, Adele, John P, James W, Eugene
J, Thomas S, and Chipley R, five of whom are still living.

She was perhaps in point of membership, the oldest member of the Marietta
Presbyterian church, having united with it in 1846.  True to the faith she
professed, death had no terror for her, for it had been robbed of its sting, and
the grace of its victory.

Mrs SETZE was never heard to speak harm of any one, her motto being: "If you
can't say anything good, don't say anything."

In spite of her advanced age her fingers were unceasingly busy during the late
war, knitting the garments and other articles needed by the Red Cross.

Mrs SETZE was a true type of the aristocracy of the old South, and her charm of
manner and bright personality won the love and esteem of all who knew her.
