On Saturday morning at 4:45 o'clock Mrs. Elizabeth Harrington, who had been visiting at the home of her son, J. W. Harrington, in Oak Grove settlement, died after a sharp attack of heart trouble. Retiring the night before seemingly in the best of health, she awakened the family about 4:30 the next morning coughing, and almost before they could all be roused she passed away. She was born in Mississippi sixty-two years ago and when only fourteen years of age came to Arkansas, with her parents locating in Van Buren County. Twenty-two years ago she came, with her husband and family, to Conway County, where she had lived for the most part. Her husband, J. E. Harrington, passed away five years ago, and since that time she had lived in Ola, visiting here for several months at a time. She had been here for the past three months making an unusually enjoyable visit to her loved ones. At an early age Mrs. Harrington joined the Methodist Church and lived a Christian, exemplary life, instructing her children and a good neighbor. By all she will be greatly missed. On Saturday evening the body was taken to Ola, where on Sunday afternoon services were conducted by Rev. Johnston, of the Methodist Church, and the remains were tenderly laid to rest by the side of her husband. Four sons and two daughters survive, all grown and married, and to them we extend our sincere sympathy.
