From The Cairo Bulletin, Tuesday, 15 Jun 1880

DIED

At half past ten o’clock Sunday morning, June 13th, 1880, at the residence of Rev. Benjamin Y. George, Mrs. Nina Gilman Hickman, wife of Mr. B. L. Hickman, of St. Louis, Mo.
Mrs. Hickman was born in Washington City, November 5th, 1857.

She was the daughter of William H. and the late Maggie D. Gilman, and sister of Mrs. Benjamin Y. George. The family removed while she was an infant, to Columbia, Boone County, Missouri, and that was her home until her marriage, October 16, 1878.

The youngest child, somewhat delicate in health from her childhood, she was the darling of her family. She was as brilliant in her gifts and as lovely in her disposition as she was beautiful to behold. Her untimely death fills the hearts of her devoted husband, her family and innumerable friends with a grief which is only relieved by the memory of her sweet Christian life and the assurance that she has entered into rest.

Funeral services will be held in the Presbyterian church this morning, at a quarter before ten o’clock. The remains will be, for the present, interred at Beech Grove.
