Atlanta Constitution, 17 November 1905
Miss Virginia Bell Dies.
Daughter of Hon. Hiram P. Bell Succumbs to Heart Disease.

Miss Virginia Bell, daughter of Hon. Hiram P. Bell, of Cumming, Ga., and sister 
of Hon. George Bell, of Atlanta, died unexpectedly at the latter's residence in 
this city yesterday morning at 7:15 o'clock.
For several days Miss Bell has not been in the best of health, but neither she 
nor any of the members of her family had any idea that her illness was of a 
serious nature.  Her death is attributed to heart trouble.
Miss Bell was about thirty years of age.  She had hundreds of friends all over 
the state, and these will learn of her sudden death with much sorrow.  She 
possessed a lovable and amiable disposition, which, together with her beautiful 
Christian character, caused her to be loved by all within her circle of 
acquaintance.
The deceased is survived by her father, Hon. Hiram P. Bell, of Cumming, Ga., 
for many years a member of congress, and one of the most prominent  men in the 
state; one brother, Hon. George Bell, of Atlanta, assistant United States 
district attorney, and one sister, Mrs. Carter Tate, wife of Congressman Tate, 
of the ninth district.
The funeral services will be conducted this morning at 11 o'clock at the 
residence of Hon. George Bell, 20 Spruce street, Inman Park.  The interment 
will take place at Westview cemetery.
On account of the wide popularity of the deceased and the distinguished members 
of her family, the house will no doubt be filled with people when the hour for 
the funeral arrives.
The following gentleman will act as pallbearers at the funeral:  Judge John R. 
Wilkinson, Charles R. Winship, L. R. Carmichael, A. W. Jones, C. L. Pettigrew, 
H. V. Jones, Palmer Johnson and Edwin Jones.
