MARION - Funeral services for Mrs. Kate Montgomery Brodnax, who died in a hospital in Columbia early Monday morning, took place at the home Tuesday afternoon. She was laid to rest in the beautiful old Methodist cemetery in the family plot where sleep her father, mother and baby girl.
Many lifelong friends attended.
Born at Marion, the youngest daughter of the late W. J. Montgomery and Mrs. Annie Stackhouse Montgomery, she was popular for her winsomeness of disposition and personality before she developed interest in public affairs, which put her in the forefront of the woman's movement in South Carolina.
Her illness began soon after her law examination, and she was never able to practice her profession though hope was entertained for her ultimate recovery for several years.
