(Cedartown Standard, December 26, 1901) 
Mrs. Virginia A. Witcher, widow of the late Dr. Witcher, of Polk County, died 
suddenly at the home of her sister, Mrs. M. F. Akin, on Monday evening. The 
family were around the fir in the sitting room when Mrs. Witcher remarked that 
she had to go to her room. In a few minutes the family heard a fall in the part 
of the house where Mrs. Witcher had gone, and on going to her room, found her 
unconscious on the floor. She revived sufficiently to indicate that the pain 
was in her chest and expired. Mrs. Witcher was a sister of Mrs. Akin, Mrs. J. 
S. Prather of Atlanta, and Mrs. Verdery Battey. Her husband, Dr. Witcher, was 
killed wile serving in the Confederate army. Mrs. Witcher came to Cartersville 
a short time ago, on a visit to her sister, and was in her usual health, when 
she died so suddenly. The funeral service was conducted at the home of Mrs. 
Akin yesterday morning by Revs. G. W. Yarbrough and A. W. Bealer, and the 
remains were carried to Cassville for interment.—Cartersville News, 19th
