MRS. MOLLIE ATWOOD DIED THURSDAY NIGHT
Resident of The Second Mt. Pleasant Community For Many Years

(From Friday's Daily)
Mrs. Mollie Atwood, 64 years old, widow of Thomas Atwood, the couple being residents of the Second Mt. Pleasant community for many years, died Thursday night at Rensselaer, Indiana, where she had been making her home for three years. She was quite well known in the western part of this county and all over Johnson county.
Mrs. Atwood was born February 2, 1853.
She had been a member of the Second Mt. Pleasant church and was one of its active members until she removed to Hopewell and her many friends in her old home community will be saddened by the news of her death.
Four children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Atwood. Mrs. John Williams, a daughter, died a few years ago, and the surviving children are Charles Atwood, Acton; Mrs. Otis Diabel, of Franklin, and Miss Mabel Atwood, who was making her home with her mother.
The body will be brought to the home of the daughter in Franklin for the funeral services Saturday and burial will be made in the Second Mt. Pleasant cemetery.
Mrs. Atwood's death was caused by heart disease.
She was a sister of John Lusk, east of this city, and is survived by two sisters and three other brothers — Mrs. James Patterson and Mrs. Joseph Owens, W. R. Lusk and Philander Lusk, of Johnson county, and Winston Lusk, whose home is in the west.
Mrs. Atwood was the matron of the Johnson county orphan's home for a few years before going to Rensselaer and she had transferred her membership to the Baptist church at Hopewell, near the orphan's home.
The funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
