MRS. AMMEN STARKEY.
Death Last Night of This Estimable Lady.
After a long and painful illness from consumption, Mrs. Emma Starkey, the beloved wife of Mr. Ammen Starkey, of this place, passed peacefully to her reward shortly after midnight last night, at the home of her step-mother, Mrs. S. F. Simmons.
The deceased, who was a daughter of the late S. F. Simmons, was about fifty years of age, and most of her life had been spent in this county, where she had hosts of warm and enduring friendships. During her long illness she manifested a lovely, Christian spirit, and a devoted husband, children and relatives ministered tenderly to her every wish and need, and she was surrounded by them when the end came.
Mrs. Starkey is survived by her husband and four daughters — Mrs. J. R. Woods and Mrs. B. S. Barnett, of Catawba; and Mrs. 0. G. Lewls and Mrs. H. E. Pugh, of Roanoke; also by two sisters — Mrs. M. G. McClung, of Salem, and Mrs. Dr. J. A. Gale, of Roanoke. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made.

The death angel invaded the quiet home and took away the soul of the mother Mrs. Emma Starkey. She was the oldest daughter of Capt. Sparrel F. Simmons and sister-in-law of Rev. W. E. Hubbert, her first husband having been Samuel Frank Hubbert long since dead. She leaves four daughters, all happily married, Mrs. H. E. Pugh, Mrs. J. R. Woods, Mrs. O. G. Lewis and Mrs. B. S. Barnett, and two sisters Mrs. Lizzie McClung and Mrs. Dr. Jos. A. Gale.
She was a consistent member of the Ev. Lutheran church, as are all her children. She united with the church in early childhood. Her funeral was conducted in the College Lutheran church in Salem, by Rey. C. K. Bell, her pastor, and Rev. Dr. L. G. M. Miller, attended by a large concourse of sympathetic relatives and friends, and her remains were laid to rest in East Hill cemetery, beneath a mound of exquisite floral tributes. May the Lord whom she loved and who in his wisdom took from earth to the land of rest the soul of this beloved wife and mother comfort the hearts of the bereaved husband, daughters and sisters.
