Death of Mrs. Henry BELL
At the advanced age of eighty years Mrs. Henry BELL departed this life last Wednesday morning. Her maiden name was Rebecca EWING, and she was born in Piqua, Ohio, on the 12th of December, 1810.
Fifty-six years ago she was married in Piqua, Ohio, to Mr. Henry BELL. Four daughters were born to them, Mrs. Philip WOLF, Mrs. Sallie DICKEY, Mrs. G. W. GEER, and Miss Mattie BELL. Mrs. Bell united with the Methodist Church when she was twenty years old, and during her long life she was a devoted Christian.
Her husband moved from Ohio to Clinton in 1853, and was engaged in business till 1861, when he sold out and his family moved out to the farm in Wilson township which they have occupied till now. Mrs. Bell was sick for two weeks with lung fever. Her age prevented her from rallying from the effect of the disease.
The funeral sermon will be preached at the home farm in Wilson township this morning by Rev. J. C. RUCKER, and the remains will be brought Woodlawn Cemetery for interment. This is the first death in the Bell family.
