Mrs. Finetta Weller, wife of George W. Weller, died at the family home in this place last Wednesday evening after an illness of ten days. The direct cause of her death was a stroke of paralysis which she sustained about ten days ago.

Mrs. Weller was about 69 years of age. She was married to G. W. Weller about four years ago. Before her last marriage, she was the widow of the late Samuel Shepherd, who died about ten years ago. Mrs. Weller is survived by her husband and the following children: Herman Shepherd, of this county; Mrs. Ida Bishop, Mrs. Warren Foster and Casper Shepherd, of Louisville, and R. A. Shepherd, of Chicago. She is also survived by one brother, Dr. John H. Shafer, of this place and many grand children.

The death of Mrs. Weller removes from our midst a good wife, mother, neighbor and friend. In her home she was industrious, affectionate and faithful. She was a loving and indulgent mother, and her whole married life was spent for her husband and children. As a neighbor, she was kind and ever ready to lend a helping hand in time of distress.

The greater portion of Mrs. Weller's life was spent in the vicinity of Bullitt's Lick, where during the life of her first husband, her home was always open to the many friends who visited there.

Her remains will be buried in Bullitt's Lick Cemetery today (Friday). Rev. B. W. Hardin, conducting the services.
