SUFFOLK. 

     (Special to The Landmark.) 

  Suffolk, Va., April 10. - Mrs. Eliza Causey Phillips, wife of Dr. John E. 
Phillips, died at her home on Kilby street, Monday morning, April 10th, at 
4:35 o'clock.  She had been desperately ill for ten days with hemorrhage 
fever, having been stricken Friday, the 31st of March. 

  Every medical attention that is known was hers during her short illness, 
there being always several doctors and nurses in attendance, and numbers of 
solicitous neighbors and friends ready to render any aid possible.  In the 
death of Mrs. Phillips, Suffolk has sustained a great loss.  An earnest, 
active Christian, she was a great help to the poor and afflicted and a worthy 
member of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, in whose choir she has sung for years. 

  She was a member of the King's Daughters, and a charter member of the 
Suffolk Literary Club, the oldest club in Suffolk. 

  She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, Dr. John E. Phillips, a stepson to 
whom she was a devoted mother, John Phillips, an only son, William Phillips, 
a widowed mother, Mrs. Martha Causey, two sisters, Mrs. George L. Barton, of 
Suffolk, and Mrs. Spindel Miller, of Christianburg; four brothers, Messrs. 
William and Harry Causey, of Chicago, and James and Peter Causey, of Suffolk; 
numerous relatives by marriage and hosts of friends. 

  The funeral services will be conducted from St. Paul's Episcopal Church, 
Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, the Rev. Joseph B. Dunn, rector, 
officiating.
