A Sad and Sudden Death
Mrs. William Grady, who lived just south of Hopkins, went to Maryville last week and entered the St. Joseph hospital for treatment for a tumor. She was dieted; and being in good health otherwise, the doctors and friends were confident she could stand the operation all right. The operation was performed last Monday, surgeons from both Maryville and St. Joe being in attendance. The tumor was of the mushroom variety, had only been troubling the patient for a year, and when removed weighted over twenty-five pounds.
After the operation had been performed high hopes were still entertained for her recovery, but it could not be, her soul taking flight to that land where suffering and sickness is unknown Tuesday morning.
Mrs. Grady is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. [ichard] M. Terral [Terrell], a sister of Mrs. Fred Sheley and Mrs. Geo. B. Flemming. She also leaves a husband and one child to mourn her untimely death. The deceased was a good woman and will be sadly missed in this vicinity.
The funeral will take place at the M. E. church today at 2 o'clock, Rev. A. W. Miller conducting the services after which the remains will be laid away in the Hopkins cemetery.
