Shackelford lost their bright little fourteen year old daughter, Ruth, Thursday under very sad circumstances. She was taken sick the Sunday before with typhoid fever and survived but a few days. She was an unusually attractive child, and the oldest of the family. Her remains were taken to Ebenezer for burial. (Harrodsburg Hearald Thu Nov 8, 1906)
