R. Aucutt, in her 30th year .(could be 80th as the print was not too good but I think 30) She was the only daughter of J. O. & E. E. Bushnell. The funeral obsequies were held at Rock Prairie school house on Tuesday last as 11 o'clock. The esteem in which she was held may be inferred from the large attendance at the services. Thirty-five conveyances were counted on the way to the cemetery. She was among the happy converts during the harvest revival held in that school house nearly two years ago. The scripture employed as text by the pastor, Rev. G. W. Brindell, was selected by the sufferer some days before her departure, from Psalms cxvi 15: "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints". There were few dry eyes in that crowded audience during the delivery of the discourse.
