     Mrs. Lady Verona Pruden Hoggard died at the home of her son-in-law and 
daughter, Mr. And Mrs. Earl W. Bryant, on Monday morning, January 31.  She was 
74 years of age. 

     Mrs. Hoggard was a widow of the late Dr. John W. Hoggard and a daughter 
of George Washington Pruden and Mrs. Mollie Louise Pruden.  She was a native 
of North Carolina but had been a resident of Boykins for the past 14 years. 
She was a retired school teacher, having taught in the public schools of her 
state for 45 years. 

     Besides her daughter, Mrs. Bryant, she is survived by a son, John 
Norfleet Hoggard of Norfolk; a brother G. Stanley Pruden of Raleigh, N.C.; two 
sisters, Mrs. Jessie P. Spencer and Mrs. George Robert Stephenson, both of 
Severn, N.C.; five grandchildren; and a number of nieces and nephews. 

     Funeral services were conducted Tuesday afternoon at the Boykins Baptist 
Church by Rev. Felix Arnold of Enfield, N.C., assisted by Rev. W. S. Ferguson, 
pastor of the Boykins Methodist Church.  Pallbearers were nephews of the 
deceased: James P. Stephenson, Willis Stephenson, Wallace Stephenson, Dudley 
Barnes, Emmett White, Douglas Pruden, G. B. Pruden and J. B. Stephenson. 
Honorary pallbearers were friends of the family.   Mrs. A. M. Williams was

     The lovely floral designs and the large number attending the services 
attested to the high esteem in which Mrs. Hoggard was held by all who knew 
her.
