DEATH OF MISS JULIA HOLDER WAS ON FRIDAY EVENING
Miss Julia A. Holder died last Friday night at the residence of her brother Mr. W.M. Holder in this city, where she had made her home for many years. The deceased was a quiet, lovable, christian woman and had reached the advanced age of 76 years. When only eight years of age she came here from Georgia with her parents and has lived all this time at the old family homestead where she died. Hence, she was probably Roanoke's oldest resident.
Funeral services were conducted at the home Saturday afternoon by Rev. C.B. Martin, who was assisted by Elders D.P. Taylor and J.M. Joiner. The remains were accompanied by the family and friends to the city cemetery where interment was made. The grave was covered with flowers after the body was lowered to its final rest.
