Mrs. L.L. Doughty died Sunday, August 26, 1928, at her home in the Little 
Flock neighborhood, at the age of 44 years, eight months and twenty-eight

Cemetery.

Nora Dell Hughey was born November 28, 1883, near Martinville, Illinois.  
Her mother died when Nora was but sixteen months old.  She lived with 
her grandmother and later with her step-mother.  Her young life was 
useful to the neighborhood.  She was converted at the age of fourteen 
and united with the Methodist Church.  She was in her second year in 
the high school when she met and later married Lester Loren Doughty, 
January 1, 1901.  To this union were born, six boys and six girls all 
of whom are living save one daughter Laura Esther, who died at the age 
of ten months.  She is survived by her husband and eleven children, Mr. 
P.W. Drake, living at Cheyenne, Oklahoma, Mrs. O.E. Drake of Belpre, 
Kansas and the other are all at home.

The family moved from Illinois to San Antonio, Texas in 1908 and then 
to western Oklahoma three years later.  They came to Rogers four years 
ago.  Mrs. Doughty was the Little Flock correspondent of the Rogers 
Democrat until six months ago when she was compelled to give up the 
work because of her illness.  Through her good nature and loyal friendship,
she won a large number of friends wherever she has lived, and all of them
will learn of her death with much regret.

The above obituary is taken from the Rogers, Arkansas Democrat.

Mrs. Drake of this city attended the funeral of her mother, there.
