Friends here of Mrs. T.C. Hightower, formerly of this place, were much grieved to hear of her death on last Wednesday in a Shreveport sanitarium. Mrs. Hightower has been an invalid for many years, and when she contracted typhoid fever became an easy victim, but her death was never-the-less a great shock to her many friends here and elsewhere in North Louisiana. Her remains were brought to Arcadia and interred in the cemetery here, the funeral being conducted by Rev. J. C. Cox, pastor of the Baptist Church. Misses Lela Hightower and Ruth Furness, of Shreveport; her sister, Mrs. Dobkins and daughter, Miss Opal, of Bowie, Texas, and a great many relatives from Mt. Lebanon attended the funeral, and several accompanied the remains from Shreveport. Mr. Elgyn Hightower went to Shreveport to return with the remains. The deepest sympathy of friends is extended to the bereaved husband and other relatives who survive.
