(Mrs. Adams was) in every sense of the word a good woman. As mother, wife, and friend she was true and while everyone with whom she had dealings or with which she came into contact were attacted to her, yet those who knew her best loved her most, for they only truly understood the motives that controlled her every act.

Her husband preceded her to the grave several years ago. Three sisters, Mrs. Ellen Jenkins and Mrs. B. F. Hill, of this city, and Mrs. Amelia Cecil, of Nashville and one brother Mr. William Ingram, of Tennessee, also survive her.
Funeral services were conducted Thursday morning at St. Augustine's Church, after which her remains were interred at St. Augustine's cemetery.
Notwithstanding the bitter cold weather, her funeral was largely attended and deep was the sympathy and sorrow that went out to the remaining members of the family who had been so sorely effected.
