Death of Mrs. T.A. Kimbrough

Mrs. Birdie Kimbrough, wife of Mr. T.A. (Thomas Albert) Kimbrough, died at the 
residence of Mrs. Carrington in this city, yesterday morning at 7:45 o’clock.

Mrs. Kimbrough was the teacher of vocal music in the G.N.&L. College. A few 
months ago it was observed that her health was failing but she put forth all 
her energies and continued in the discharge of her duties until about a month 
ago, when she was compelled to take her bed.

Mr. and Mrs. Kimbrough and their two children boarded with Mrs. Lane at the 
Edwards House.  About ten days ago it was thought a change of location might be 
beneficial to Mrs. Kimbrough and she was carried to the residence of Mrs. 
Carrington, in the northern suburbs of the city.

The parents of Mrs. Kimbrough, Mr. and Mrs. J.F. Little of Talbot County, were 
early notified of her illness and came to her bedside at once.  For several 
weeks they have watched with tender care the failing strength of their beloved 
daughter, as the flush of youth faded from her cheeks and she sank to the grave.

Her attending physician, Dr. J.A. Callaway, called Drs. Hall and Croley into 
consultation, and everything possible was done to save the beloved wife, 
daughter and mother, but human effort was unavailing.

Mrs. Kimbrough was well known and greatly beloved in this city.  About ten 
years ago, soon after her graduation at Wesleyan College, she was elected a 
teacher in the M.G.M. &A. College, where she was a successful teacher before 
her marriage.  Last fall she was elected teacher of vocal music in the Girls 
Industrial School, which position she filled admirably until her health 
failed.  Her death is a sad blow to a devoted husband, two sweet little 
daughters, a father and mother, brothers and sisters.

Her remains will be carried to Talbot County today for burial.

*Note – Mary Birdsong Little Kimbrough passed away on May 15, 1893.  She is 
buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in Talbotton, Ga.
