Mrs. F.P. Spriggs of Paulding, O., died Aug. 8, while in Ft. Wayne, Indiana where she had been taken for medical treatment. The interment took place in Paulding cemetery. She was the daughter of Francis Asbury and Harriet Pettay and was born in Sarahsville, Oct. 10, 1864. She united in marriage to Frank P. Spriggs, whom she had known from her early girlhood, June 16, 1891, and for a little more than seventeen years these youthful lovers walked life's pathway together, enjoying its sunshine and enduring its clouds and shadows. Of this union three children were born, Morris, Florence and Paul who, with the husband, a father and mother, five sisters and one brother, remain to mourn her untimely departure. Her final illness was more than two years in duration, during which time she received the thoughtful and devoted care of her loved ones, and the most skillful treatment from eminent physicians, but to no avail as far as restoring her health. She was converted when seventeen years old and united with the Methodist Episcopal church. She was faithful to her profession and exemplified her religion in all her walks of life. The bereft friends have the sympathy of all.
