T. Spires The community was shocked Tuesday to hear of the death of Mrs. J.T. Spires, which occurred at Trinidad, Colo. Intimate friends hearing from the family knew that her general health was greatly improved and she was getting along nicely and when the news of her death came none were prepared to receive and belive it. The body came in and interment took place yesterday at Rose Hill Cemetery, there being a large concourse of friends and relatives at the grave to say "farewell". Mrs. Spires was Miss Hattie Treadway before she married. After her marriage to J. T. Spires some years ago the happy couple resided at Frost awhile, then moved to Blooming Grove. In course of events sorrow came into their home and a little fellow sleeps beneath the blossoming flowers in the Frost cemetery and two have well marked mounds at Rose Hill, this city. The mother showed signs of failing health and the latter part of last December the family packed up and hid away to the salubrious climate of Trinidad, Colo. The change brought the flush of health back to her cheek and they felt they were more than blessed for the sacrifice in moving away to a strange place. Mrs. Spires was about 35 years old, a member of the Baptist church and a woman who lived her religion every day of her life. She was a modest, unassuming, sweet souled woman. She is survived by her husband and two children, Miss Hazel aged about 13 and a little girl less than two years of age. Additional Comments: Additional note from Diane Richards: Died in Colorado. Mrs. Tom Spires of Blooming Grove and who has been in Colorado for some months for her health, died in Colorado Monday, and the remains were interred at Blooming Grove yesterday. The deceased was thirty-five years old and is survived by her husband and two little daughters.
