DEATH OF MISS TUDE PERSINGER
Miss Tude Persinger, youngest daughter of David Persinger, Esq., died at the home of her father, four miles from Washington, on the Snow Hill Pike, at 6 o'clock on Saturday morning last, of typhoid pneumonia, after an illness of five weeks. On the night of January 3d, she and her father were summoned to the residence of her sister, Mrs. James Sollars, who was dangerously ill. On the way, their buggy was upset, and in consequence of the exposure attending the accident, the weather being extremely cold on that night, Miss Tude contracted a severe cold, which developed into typhoid pneumonia, culminating in her death. For a time during her illness, her condition seemed to be improving, and her friends were encouraged to hope for her recovery, but their hopes were no realized.
On Friday last, being informed that she had but a short time to live, she called her father to her bedside and expressed her last wishes, making full arrangements for her burial, to the smallest details. Her funeral took place on Sunday morning last. Brief services were conducted by Rev. Wakefield, at Mr. Persinger's residence, after which the remains were brought to Washington, followed by a long train of sorrowing friends, and deposited in Washington Cemetery.
Miss Persinger was born Aug. 13, 1850, at the Persinger homestead, where she died. For a number of years past she has spent a great portion of her time at the home of her sister, Mrs. Dr. Harlow, in this place, and was well known and highly esteemed in Washington society. A young lady of purest character, and kindest heart, possessing rare social qualities and accomplishments, she was a general favorite with old and young, and to those who enjoyed her intimate friendship and best knew her many excellent qualities of mind and heart, she was peculiarly endeared. Her early death is mourned with keenest sorrow by her large circle of loving friends.
The death of Miss Tude, following that of her sister, Mrs. Jennie Sollars, is a painful affliction to the father and family, who have the sincere sympathy of our community in their bereavement.
The family desire us to express their thanks to their neighbors and friends for kind attentions and sympathy in their affliction.
