Mrs. C. G. Gunn Died At Joyce On April 29

On April 29, 1929, at the home of her son, O. C. Gunn, Joyce, Mrs. C. G. Gunn
died at 1:30 p.m.

Mrs. Gunn had reached the ripe old age of seventy-six, having been born near
Van Buren, Missouri, March 8, 1853.  She was the mother of eight children
and had many grandchildren.  Two of her sons live in Louisiana, W. C.
Hutton and O. C., of Joyce.  The others are in Missouri.  Her maiden name
was Miss Amanda Condry.  She was married January 22, 1871 and at the time of
her death had been married more than fifty-eight years.  She and her good
husband, Mr. G. C. Gunn, were on a visit to their son when she died.  She was
buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery on April 30, 1929, with the Revs. C. C. Wier
and E. V. Duplantis officiating, and reading of the ritual of the Methodist
Church, of which she had been a member for sixty years.

The lifelong Christian was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by her
loved ones and friends.  Most of her children are residents of Missouri.
