Landmark, January 26, 1890, Virginian, January 28, 1890
It is a painful duty to record the death of Mrs. Emma M. Addington, wife of 
our townsman, Mr. J. D. Addington, which sad event occurred yesterday morning 
at 1:05 o'clock at the residence of her husband. Mrs. Addington was a devoted 
member of St. Paul's P. E. Church, and she was never more happy than when 
engaged in some charitable work and her open hand will be missed in many a 
home where she was a welcome visitor. She was possessed of a beautiful 
Christian character and amiable disposition, and was the centre of a large 
circle of admirers. She was a member of the Ladies' Memorial Association of 
Pickett-Buchanan Camp, and it and the Camp are called to attend the funeral, 
which will take place this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock from St. Paul's Church.

The funeral of Mrs. Emma A., wife of Mr. James D. Addington, whose death has 
been announced in a previous issue, took place at 3:30 o'clock Sunday 
afternoon from St. Paul's P. E. Church, of which the deceased had been a 
constant member. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. A. S. Lloyd, 
rector of St. Luke's Church, in the presence of a large congregation, 
conspicuous in which was Pickett-Buchanan Camp, Confederate Veterans; the 
Ladies' Memorial Auxiliary of the Camp and the Children's Aid Society of St. 
Paul's Church. The remains were interred in Cedar Grove Cemetery, and were 
followed to the grave by a long procession, of which the organizations 
mentioned formed a part. The following gentlemen were the pall bearers: 
Messrs. James Y. Leigh, C. Billups, Judge T. S. Garnett, James T. Borum, 
George W. Wilson, W. M. Hannah, L. Royster, W. Lane Kelly, B. A. Marsden and 
James F. Duncan. The floral offerings were very beautiful
