LULIE MAGILL [sic; MACGILL] JORDAN. 

Her Death Occurred Yesterday Morning After Months of Illness. 

  After almost ten months of suffering, at 9:30 o'clock yesterday morning, 
Miss Lulie Magill Jordan, the eldest daughter of Mrs. C.R. Jordan, passed into 
rest. 

  Her loss will be keenly felt by a host of sorrowing friends.  Beautiful in 
soul as she was in personality, none knew her but to regard her as a model 
type of womanhood.  Always bright and happy she cheered and inspired all with 
whom she came in contact.  The funeral will take place from the residence, No. 
108 Charlotte street, at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon.  The remains will be 
taken to Smithfield at 2:30 o'clock and they will lie in the Episcopal church 
at that place until to-morrow morning, when the interment take place in the 
family lot at old St. Paul's [sic; Luke's], Isle of Wight county.
