DIED

FORD - On Monday, October 11, 1875, of diptheria, Hattie, youngest child of
Mr. and Mrs. John R. Ford.  Aged 9 years, 1 month, and 14 days. It is quite
needless to say, that the deepest sympathy of the people in this vicinity
go out to the sorrowing family thus sorely afflicted.  Three times within a
few months has the grim visitor death stalked across the threshold of this
happy home and snatched from the family circle, loved and loving members.
Poor little Hattie, she suffered death a score of times, being given up by
her medical attendants several days prior to her death, but still she
lingered on.  Her illness lasted 11 days, five days more of torture than
was given to little Carrie [her cousin Carrie J. Ford who was a daughter of
William E. Ford Jr. and the late Elizabeth Amelia Imus (Ford)(Servis)].
The funeral, which was largely attended, was held at the Presbyterian
Church on Tuesday afternoon.

Additional Comments:
Hattie Ford was the daughter of John R. Ford and Hattie M. Imus.
