Cedartown Standard,  Cedartown, GA., Thursday, April 3, 1919
Mrs. M. F. Waddell, of Atlanta, formerly of this place died Sunday afternoon 
and was laid to rest at Union Hill Church Monday. She has many friends here, 
who regret to hear of her death. The bereaved one have our heartfelt sympathy. 
(Cedartown Standard, Thursday, April 3, 1919) The Atlanta Constitution on 
Monday had the following to say of the death in Atlanta of Mrs. M. F. Waddell, 
who formerly lived here and who had many relatives and friends in Polk. After 
sleeping continuously for six days and nights, Mrs. M. F. Waddell, who is 
believed to be the second person here to contract the "sleeping sickness 
disease," died at 3 o’clock Sunday afternoon at her residence, 243 Kennedy 
Street. "Mrs. Waddell began her long sleeping period last Tuesday, attending 
physicians say, after she had first begun to improve from pneumonia brought on 
by influenza. All efforts to arouse her were of no avail, and the injection of 
serums to stimulate her heart action did not serve to keep her condition from 
growing weaker daily. "She is survived by her husband M. F. Waddell, an Atlanta 
grocer; one daughter, Mrs. F. G. Hudson; four sons, W. M., A. L., G. L. and J. 
M. Waddell, and by four brothers, W. M., R. F., S. B. and J. F. Golden. The 
body will be sent to Bremen today." (Cedartown Standard, Thursday, April 3, 
1919)
