The Caldwell Watchman, February 7, 1913
Died. - On Sunday morning, February 2, 1913, Mrs. M. Lou Rutland, widow of the 
late J. B. Rutland, aged 72 years. Interment was made in Columbia cemetery 
Monday evening.

The deceased was stricken about four weeks ago, and was carried to New Orleans, 
where an operation was performed at Touro Infirmary. He[r] condition had 
improved sufficient to bringing her home, which she had requested, and relatives 
left New Orleans with her Saturday evening. Her condition grew considerably 
worse after leaving New Orleans and she expired in a few minutes after reaching 
her home here.

Mrs. Rutland was one of the pioneer residents of Columbia, and since the death 
of her husband, had been associated with the late T. J. Waggoner in the 
mercantile business under the firm name of M. L. Rutland & Company.

She was a faithful member of the Methodist church and for many years an active 
worker in the cause of Christianity; she was a woman of charitable impulse and 
contributed liberally to any cause that was for the good of the community, and 
her death is like a personal lose [sic loss] to every citizen in the community.
