Obituary of Mary R. Seigler Adams 
as written in "The Camilla Enterprise" dated 15 Dec 1916.  

The entire community was grievously shocked yesterday by the news of 
the death of Mrs. Wyatt Adams, which occurred at about twelve o'clock. Mrs. Adams had 
a fall Wednesday afternoon while about her duties in her home.  She had started to go out 
the door, when she made a mis-step in some way and fell out. She was bruised by the fall 
but did not think her injuries serious until she began to suffer pain.  A doctor was called 
in and it was found that there was internal injury of some sort.  Mrs. Adams steadily grew 
worse during the night and the doctors were preparing to operate yesterday morning, 
when they found that it was too late.  Her husband and all of her children except one were 
at her bedside when she passed away at noon yesterday.  Mrs. Adams was about sixty 
years of age.  She was a woman of beautiful Christian character and the years of her life 
were spent in such a way that she was deeply beloved by all with whom she came in 
contact, who commend her for her many works of love and charity.  She was a faithful 
and consistent member of the Baptist Church for a long number of years.  Mrs. Adams is 
survived by her husband, Mr. Wyatt Adams, three daughters, Mrs. Albert Ott of Norman 
Park; Mrs. Lester Adams  of Pelham; and Mrs. M J. Sanders of this city; and one son, Mr. 
John R. Adams, also of this city.  At the time of going to press, we were unacquainted 
with any funeral arrangements being made.  The funeral will probably take place some 
time today.  The many friends and relatives throughout the county join in extending to the 
bereaved family their tender sympathy in this sad hour.
