His family has been constantly ill since some time in the summerfrom one to four members being down at a time. His youngest daughter died some two weeks ago, and his son George died on Monday evening; his wife and son Asa who were convalescing, have taken serious relapses, and there seems to be a glamour of sad distress and calamity hanging over the family. In the midst of all, Mr. Kimbrough bears up wonderfully, performing the duties of a loving husband and father with a patience and perseverance absolutely wonderful. LATER.Mrs. Kimbrough died this morning at 4 o'clock. The boy Asa is very low. Mr. Kimbrough's cup of sorrow overflows.
