Farmerville Gazette
Wednesday, June 29, 1898

Mrs. S. J. Everett, relict of the late Eld. J. P. Everett, died at the residence 
of her son-in-law, Rev. R. M. Boone, at Alexandria, last Friday morning in the 64th 
year of her age.  Mrs. Everett was seized with a severe attack of cholera morbus 
early Thursday morning and about the same hour the next day she breathed her last.  
Her remains were brought to Farmerville Saturday evening, and laid to rest in the 
cemetery here Sunday afternoon.  Rev. A. W. Vardeman, pastor of the Alexandria 
Baptist Church, accompanied the remains here, and also officiated at the funeral.
The sad news of Mrs. Everett's death was quite a severe shock to her relatives and 
friends here.  They had no intimation of the distressing intelligence until Saturday 
afternoon - - several hours after her death - - when a telephone message from Walnut 
Lane brought the sad tidings that the corpse was en route to Farmerville for burial.  
The grief-stricken relatives have the sincere sympathy of the entire community.
