*********************************************************
The venerable Mrs. Elizabeth Widgeon, a most estimable Christian woman, 
widow of the late Jacob Widgeon, died at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R.A. Pebworth, 
518 Poole street, Atlantic City Ward, at 3:30 o'clock Sunday morning after a 
long and painful illness which she bore with heroic fortitude and Christian 
resignation, in the seventy-eighth year of her age.
The deceased was a native of Portsmouth, where she resided until about twelve 
years ago, when she moved to Norfolk, where she has since resided.
In early childhood she professed faith in Christ and united with the Baptist 
Church in Portsmouth, but on taking up her residence in Norfolk she united with 
Central Baptist Church and continued in fellowship with it until called away by 
death.  She was loved and esteemed by a large circle of friends in Norfolk and 
Portsmouth for her long, beautiful and useful Christian life, who will learn 
with sorrow of her demise.
She is survived by three children- Mrs. George D. Whitehurst, Lloyd Widgeon and 
Miss Annie Widgeon, all of Norfolk.  The funeral will be held from the residence 
of Mr. Pebworth at 2 o'clock this afternoon and will be conducted by the Rev. 
George W. Swope, pastor of Central Baptist Church.
