Greenville Independent - Thursday, June 12, 1884

Mrs. N.J. Miller of Greenville, died Sunday from an overdose of morphine. She 
took fifteen grains of morphine at a dose. All efforts to bring her out of the 
lethargy of death were unavailable. The deceased was a slave to the opium 
habit which she in vain had tried to break. She was so discouraged with such a 
life that she had before attempted to take her own life but was saved by her 
husband - twice from drowning and twice from poisoning. Funeral exercises were 
held at the late residence of the deceased in the rooms over Sherman's 
restaurant and the remains were taken to Smyrna for burial
