MARGARET DAUGHTREY

   Died in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Virgie Cooper, in Clay Street, 
Mrs. Margaret Daughtrey, Thursday, October 4, aged eighty-four years and 
two months.  The deceased was born in the Maynard neighborhood, Isle of 
Wight County, August 3, 1839*.  On March 29, 1865*, she was married to the 
late William Daughtrey, who preceded her to the grave several years ago. 
Early in life she acknowledged Christ as her Savior and united with the 
army of His followers, being a faithful member of the Franklin Christian 
Church.  Ill health in recent years had prevented her from participating 
actively in the work of the church, but her cheerfulness and fortitude 
inspired those about her to renewed labors in the Master’s cause.

   The deceased had been very feeble for the past twelve months, and her 
death was not unexpected.  She is survived by one sister, Mrs. Minnie 
Coggsdale; one daughter, Mrs. Virgie Cooper; and five grandchildren, all 
of Franklin.

   Funeral services will be conducted at the grave in Poplar Spring 
Cemetery Friday afternoon at 3 o’clock, her Pastor, Rev. C.H. Rowland, 
officiating.
