(Cedartown Standard, September 26, 1901) 
Mrs. Arabella Lockhart, a venerable and highly esteemed lady, died Saturday 
evening after an illness of several months, aged seventy-five years. Mrs. 
Lockhart was born in Columbus, a daughter of Col. "Jack" Howard, and most of 
her life was spent in that city. Her marriage there with Mr. R. H. Lockhart 
occurred over fifty years ago, and four children blessed their union and now 
mourn the loss of a devoted and loving mother gone to join the father who 
passed away in their childhood—Mrs. J. W. Barr and Mrs. C. A. Dunwoody, of 
Cedartown; Mr. R. H. Lockhart, of Athens, and Mr. Robt. M. Lockhart, of 
Atlanta. Mrs. Lockhart has made Cedartown her home much of her time during the 
past twenty years, and was well known and generally beloved by our people. She 
has been a member of the Methodist church since girlhood, and lived a 
consistent Christian life. Funeral services were conducted at 3:30 o’clock 
Sunday afternoon at the Methodist church by her pastor, Rev. T. R. McCarty, and 
the remains were laid to rest in the city cemetery in the presence of a large 
concourse of sympathizing friends. Her death marks the end of a long and useful 
life, and the bereaved family have the sympathy of all in their great sorrow.
