(Delayed Letter)

Died - in the insane asylum in Lexington, Dec. 9th.  Mr. Geo. F. Stigers, of 
Mt. Zion.  He was an honest and upright citizen; highly esteemed by his many 
friends.  He will be sadly missed.  Mr. Stigers has been a life-long sufferer 
from spinal affection, and was at last attacked with congestion of the brain, 
which developed mental derangement.  His physician and friends decided to send 
him to the asylum in hopes that he would be benefited, but in vain.  His 
disease was beyond control.  After a stay of some two weeks, death came to 
relieve his great sufferings.  He leaves a heartbroken wife and six children - 
five boys and one girl- a sorely grieved mother and two sisters.  The remains 
were sent home Dec. 10th and next evening the funeral services were conducted 
by Rev. M.H. Adams, of Frankfort, at Mt. Zion Church.  The body was returned 
to mother earth in the family burying ground to await the resurrection morn.  
The pall-bearers were Messrs. W.H. Sudduth, Ezra Allison, Allen Stigers, Ezra 
Sheets, Ed. Stigers and Archie Moore.  We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the 
sorrowing ones.
“Weep not, dear mother, and loving wife.   Your heavenly father knoweth best.  
He hears your prayers; He knows your grief.  And has given a sufferer happy 
rest.”
