Harrell, wife of Mr. Elias Harrell of Whigham, died at her home in that town. Mrs. Harrell was attacked on Monday morning by a stroke of apoplexy and her death came as a shock to the community as few had learned of her illness. The deceased was about fifty-five years of age and is survived by her husband, one sister and one brother. The funeral was held at the family home at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon and was conducted by Rev. I. K. Chambers, and Rev. N. G. Christopher. Interment followed at the Whigham cemetery. The husband and other sorrowing relatives have the sympathy of all in their grief.
