MRS. C.C. DEGMAN

PASSED AWAY AT HER HOME NEAR SPRINGDALE LAST EVENING ABOUT 7:30 O'clock--WAS ONE OF THE MOST PROMINENT WOMEN IN THIS SECTION OF THE STATE.
__________

Mrs. C.C. Degman died at her home near Springdale last evening at 7:30 o'clock after a lingering illness of about six weeks.
Mrs. Anna M. Doyle Degman was born in Fleming County September 25, 1848. She was married to C.C.Degman February 14th, 1868, and since that time lived in the old Degman home near Springdale. Seven children were born to them, five of whom survive, Clarence G., of Cincinnati; Mrs. P.F. Martin of Edmonton, Canada; Mrs. G.W. Hook of Springdale; Julius S. of White Salmon, Washington; and John T. of Kingman, Ariz.
Mrs. Degman was a member of the Third Street M.E. Church of Maysville and had been a member of this church since her marriage. She was a consistent Christian and was very prominent in church work. She established the Methodist Sunday School at Springdale. She was a member of the Maysville W.C.T.U. and of the Berea, Ky., Capt. James West W.R.C.
She will be remembered as one of the greatest workers in the Old Settler' s Reunions and the G.A.R. meetings. She was the Secretary of the Sixteenth and Tenth Kentucky Regimental Associations.
The Ledger loses one of its best friends by the death of Mrs. Degman. For over forty years she has written for the Daily Republican and The Daily Public Ledger. Her husband was one of the founders of the first Republican newspaper in this county and she always showed a great interest in its welfare.
Mrs. Degman had been a patient sufferer for about six weeks but frequently expressed her complete resignation to God's will. "The peace which passeth all undertaking" impressed everyone coming in her presence.
Her work in God's service, with her pen, words and actions have been incalculable, so, in direct opposition to the pessimistic Immortal bard we confidently aver that that "the good this woman has done will live after her" and the good will not be "interred with her bones."
The funeral will be held tomorrow morning from the Bethany Church. The funeral services will be conducted by Rev. J.M. Literal of the Third Street M.E. Church. The burial will be made in the Bethany Cemetery by the side of her husband.
