July 29th, Miss Phena Woodruff departed this life at Coloden, Ga. Monday afternoon her brother George, accompanied by her mother, had been summoned by telegraph to come to see her, as she was seriously sick, but she died about two hours before they reached her side. Miss Woodruff was in the bloom of a promising young womanhood, being about 20 years of age. She was a young lady of grace, culture, was kind, gentle and benevolent. She was industrious and energetic and had mastered the art of telegraphy and left home and dear ones eighteen months ago to go forth in the world to fight the battle of life upon her own responsibility. Abroad, as at home, she was a favorite with all good people. Her untimely and unexpected death is mourned by her many relatives and friends in Newton County. Her remains were brought to Salem for interment. The sympathies of all our citizens go out to the grief stricken family in the dark hour of their sad bereavement.
