Mrs. Preston C. Crater died Wednesday morning about 7 o'clock at her home three miles east of Monroe. Her death was sudden and was a great shock to the family. She was about her household duties when she fell. Her husband came to her assistance and placed her in bed, called a physician and did everything possible for her, but she never revived, although Dr. Ed Williams reached her about ten minutes before death came. Dr. Williams believes influenza was the cause of her death.
Mrs. Crater's maiden name was Hinson, daughter of the late Mr. Jerre Hinson of east Monroe township.
Besides her husband and two children, she is survived by five brothers, Messrs. Joseph and Thomas Hinson of Buford township, Rev. O. I. Hinson of Red Springs, J. Enos and Jeff Hinson of east Monroe township, and four sisters, Mrs. Thetus Trull of Marshville township, Mrs. Crawford Helms of Goose Creek, Mrs. J. H. Thomas of Marshville and Mrs. G. T. Winchester of Mineral Springs.
Deceased was a faithful member of Center Methodist church and was a most excellent woman, a devoted wife and sympathetic mother.
Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon and the remains were interred in the Hinson cemetery three miles east of Monroe. Services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. J. J. Edwards.
