The Sumter Republican 15th says: The city has been quite astonished and
distressed to learn that Miss Willie, daughter of Col. W. A. and Mrs. Sarah L.
Maxwell, had taken arsenius acid about two ounces – which so shocked her system
as to produce death. She took it Monday evening and died yesterday morning about
8 o’clock. The skillful efforts of Doctors Hinkle and Cooper were unavailing to
save her. Miss Willie was fourteen years of age.
