Daily Enquirer, 1/19/1884, Columbus, GA. 
   MRS MARY E. STARKE
 DEATH OF MRS. MARY E. STARKE
The announcement of the death of Mrs. Mary E. Starke
which occured at the Rankin House yesterday afternoon
at l:30 o'clock, will be read with regret by her 
numerous friends this morning.  Mrs. Starke was
one of the novlest women, and was universally
beloved by all who knew her.  The gentleness of
her disposition and the purity of her character
gave her a strong influence for good, which she
exerted over all with whom she came in contact.
The death of such an excellent lady is a serious loss
to any community.
     Mrs Starke was the daughter of the inmented
James Grier, who, before the war, was one of our
wealthiest river planters.  She was born in Stewart
County, GA., in December 1830, and when she grew up
to womanhood, was married to Col. John M. Starke.
She leaves two children, Mr. John T. Starke and
Miss Sallie Starke, who have the sincere sympathy
of this entire community in their sad bereavement.
    The funeral will take place from the Pres-
byterian church at l0:30 o'clock this morning.
