Mrs. Mary Francis Allison, the aged and beloved wife of Mr. A. L. Allison, died at her home here last Saturday morning, May 2, at 8 o'clock, aged 71 years 2 months and 15 days, after a brief illness.

The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. S.

Mr. Parker delivered a most tender and touching tribute to the memory of the deceased, dwelling upon her long and active membership in the church and the zealous interest she always manifested in good work in the Lord's vineyard; her noble and unselfish devotion to loved ones, and the kind and charitable deeds she was ever wont to render.

Sunday morning the remains were taken to Hazelhurst, accompanied by her husband, sister and a number of friends, and laid away in the cemetery there.

Mrs. Allison moved to Summit with her husband in Feb. 1869, and had resided here constantly until the day of her death. She was known to every person in town as one of the most charitable, generous and gentle women; a faithful and devout follower of Christ, a doer of good deeds whenever opportunity afforded, and she enjoyed the esteem and love of all in a high degree. Her sad death is deeply deplored and lamented by all who were cognizant with her great kindness, liberality and gentleness of spirit. She leaves her aged and stricken husband and a sister, Miss Emily Hatch to mourn their irreparable loss, to both of whom the sincerest sympathy of the entire community is tendered in their sorrow.
