The funeral services will be held at the First Christian church Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 , with Rev. John McD. Horne, pastor of the church, officiating. Burial will be made in Mound cemetery.
Mrs. Cornelia Rickabaugh Scully was born in Jackson County, Ohio, February 4, 1861 and was married to Mr. James B. Scully September 19, 1881, the ceremony being performed at Chillicothe, O., which place was their home for two years. Mr. and Mrs. Scully moved to Moberly, Mo. and remained there for thirteen years.

Two sisters, Mrs. Jennie Funk, of Springfield, O., and Mrs. Lewis Funk, of Lewis, Iowa, also survive. She was a member of the First Christian church , joining this great denomination when fourteen years old, and the last rites be held from the church she loved so well. She was a valued and honored member of the Charleston chapter of the Eastern Star, and of the Ladies' Auxiliary to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, and the members of these orders will attend the last rites in a body, dressed in white, Wednesday afternoon.
During their long residence in Charleston, Mrs. Scully met and made many friends. While it has been expected for some weeks that she could never recover, yet when the death was announced Monday evening it caused quite a shock to the friends of the family.
In the death of this good woman, the family has lost a good wife and mother, the Eatern Star and Auxiliary a good member and the city and excellent citizen.
