In addition to her children, she is survived by three brothers and many other relatives.
Mrs. Putman was a member of the Church of Christ. She was one of our good women who suffered from the hardships of the pioneer days. Coming to Jack County in 1855, she was there when there were very few white people and many Indians. In her girlhood days, she was familiar with the depredations of the marauding Indians.
Her friends in pioneer days will regret to learn of her death.
