She had been in poor health for some time, but was apparently stronger in the last few weeks. She had gone to the garden and got potatoes and prepared them for dinner and then lay down on her bed and when other members of the family went to call her to dinner they found her dying. The deceased was considered a good neighbor and was a member of the Baptist church. Besides, a host of friends, to mourn her departure, she leaves a husband, Roby Beard, one son, James, and four daughters, Mesdames Henry Hicks and Milton Adkins, and Misses Martha and May Beard. Interment was made in a private grave yard on Little Elk.
