BURNSIDE
On Thursday afternoon, at five thirty, the death of Mrs. R. A. Burnside occurred at her home on Danville Avenue. Her death was known to be near for several hours before, but it did not prepare the loved ones any better to stand the shock. She had been confined to her bed for weeks, and from the beginning there was little hope of recovery, though she had the attention of the most skilled physicians and nurses.
For some time she suffered from stomach trouble, gradually growing weaker, till the end came, caused from two strokes of paralysis.
The funeral services took place in the midst of a throng of friends and relatives, on Saturday afternoon at the residence. They were conducted by Rev. C. C. Brown and Ed F. M. Tinder. The burial took place immediately after, in the Lancaster Cemetery. The deceased was the oldest child of the late General W. J. Landram, being born in this city where she spent her entire life of fifty-seven years.
It has been often truthfully said that no better or truer mother and wife ever lived in this community. She was loved and praised by all for her many deeds of kindness and sacrifices made during her christian life. She played possibly the first organ ever installed in a church in Garrard County at the early age of twelve years, and continued to lend her splendid musical talent to the worship in the Presbyterian church to the time of her last illness, going many times when she was not physically able.
Too much cannot be said about this good woman, and the high esteem in which she was held by all.
"No better friend or neighbor could have lived," as is heard from lip to lip, is verified by the writer who was the recipient of her neighborly manners for many years.
The bereaved ones to whom we express our heartfelt condolence are:
Mrs. Wm. Lackey, Miss Bertha, Mrs. Brent Metcalfe, Knoxville, Kansas, Miss Bettie Walker, Joe B., Louis L., Richard B. and John Tercy, all of whom are children, and two sisters, Mrs. W. C. McFarland, Berlin, Germany, Mrs. C. K. McGuin, Howard, Ohio and Louis Landram, Richmond, Kentucky.
Her husband, Judge R. A. Burnside was county judge of Garrard County two terms and is now General U. S. Deputy Collector. The loss falls heavily upon him, the couple being a most devoted one.
On account of the prominence of the family, the floral offering was beautiful and profuse.
