"DEATH OF MRS. AURELIA GILL HOOKE THIS MORNING
----------
Mrs. Aurelia Gill Hooke, 92, member of a prominent pioneer family of East Tennessee, died today at 12:10 a. m. at the family home, 514 West Main street.

Due to advancing age she had been a semi-invalid for a number of years and for three years had been confined to her bed the greater part of the time.

Funeral services will be held Thursday at 2:30 p. m. at the First Presbyterian church, conducted by her pastor, Dr., S. H. Hay. Interment in Jarnagin cemetery.

Pallbearers will be: Lea K. Donaldson, Lewis S. Noe, G. B. Helm, C. d. Trobaugh, E. T. Bettis and E. M. Horner.

Those in charge of flowers are: Mesdames Chas. Holtsinger, W. J. Donaldson, G. B. Helm, Jack Payne, George S. Hale, W. E Howell and L. H. Corbett and Miss Minnie Lea Jarnagin.

Surviving are one daughter, Miss Joe L. Hooke and one sister, Mrs. Clyde Gill Howell, and the following nieces and nephews, of this city: Mrs. Mamie Gill Wooten, Mrs. D. P. Turner, Mrs. Frank C. Jarnagin, Mrs. Hugh W. Dick, Billy Gill and James S. Gill. A number of nieces and nephews of Mrs. Hooke reside in East Tennessee and other states.

Mrs. Hooke, daughter of the late Samuel Gill and Diana Cobb Gill, was the widow of Dr. Robert Hooke of Chattanooga, who lived but a few years after their marriage. She had resided in Morristown for more than thirty-five years, coming here from the ancestral home of the Gills at Bean Station.

The devotion of Mrs. Hooke and her only daughter was a beautiful expression of mother-daughter love. Other relatives of Mrs. Hooke also shared in her love and devotion Throughout the years of a life well spent she delighted in ministering to others.

Mrs. Howell had been the constant companion of her sister, during her invalid days and had added much to her comfort and pleasure.

No relative considered a visit to Morristown complete without a call at her home, It was of great interest to Mrs. Hooke to keep in touch with all her relatives regardless of distances, and to discuss the members of the different families with visiting kinsmen."
