MARY VIRGINIA HODGES

   The death of Miss Mary Virginia Hodges, aged 80, formerly of Franklin, 
occurred Tuesday, June 13, at 12:30 p.m., at the home of her sister, Mrs. G.V. 
White, 421 West 34th Street, Norfolk.

   "Miss Mollie," as she was known to her numerous friends here and elsewhere, 
was born in Nansemond County, the daughter of the late Henry Harrison and Mrs. 
Cornelia King Hodges.  Until a few years ago, when she moved to Norfolk, she 
had made her home in Franklin with her sister, the late Mrs. Gertrude Hodges 
Beale.

   She was a member of the Franklin Congregational Christian Church and of the 
Ladies’ Aid Society.  Surviving her are two sisters, Mrs. G.V. White of 
Norfolk and Mrs. J. Roland Wier of Baltimore; and a number of nieces and 
nephews, including Wesley H. Beale of this place.

   Funeral services were held at the Franklin Congregational Christian Church 
Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock, with the pastor, Dr. William T. Scott, 
officiating.  The remains were buried in Poplar Spring Cemetery, the following 
acting as pallbearers: E.L. Beale, James I. Beale, E.R. Bryant, E.P. Jones, 
L.R. Jones, Walter H. Norfleet and Dr. H.S. Hardcastle of Norfolk.  The floral 
tributes were numerous and beautiful.
