DEATH OF MRS. STEWART
Mother of Mrs. A. J. Brand, of Manassas, Dies in Her Home in Luray Last Saturday.
Mrs. Fannie E. Stewart, widow of Judge Jas. E. Stewart, for many years judge of the Page county courts, died in her home, in Luray, last Saturday morning, in the 89th year of her age. Her death followed a rapid decline in health, caused, in a measure, through severe suffering as the result of a fall received several years ago.
She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. A. J. Brand, of Manassas, and Mrs. Robert Jennings, of St. Louis, Mo.
Mrs. Stewart was the oldest real “Daughter of the Revolution” in Virginia and in the organization of the Daughters of the Revolution she was a conspicuous figure, her contributions to the literary feature being always read with great interest. She was a member of Massanutton Chapter, Harrisonburg, the chapter sending a beautiful floral tribute of white carnations, entwined with the colors of the D. A. R., which was placed upon her grave.
Mrs. Stewart was a woman of engaging personalities, highly educated and possessing those rare characteristics which gained her many lasting friends.
