Leslie, passed away at the home of her mother in Russellville Thursday morning at 5:00 o'clock of peritonitis. Her death came as a thunderbolt from a clear sky to her mother, brother and many friends as she had only been ill but a week and but very few of her friends knew of the seriousness of her illness. The death of this young girl has been the cause of more sad comment than on like occasions for many previous years. She was so young, so bright and so well liked by her many school mates and young friends that her death has cast a shadow over the whole town. Deceased was born near High Point and was nearing her fourteenth birthday, just in the prime of life. Her father, J.R. Leslie, preceded her to the grave several years ago and a kind and loving mother and affectionate brother remain to mourn her sad demise. While she had not openly confessed Christ before man she was possessed of that Christian spirit that shown brightly in her every day walk of life. Funeral services will be conducted at the Baptist Church this (Friday) morning at 10:00 o'clock by Rev. S.J. Neal, after which the remains will be laid to rest in the Enloe Cemetery west of town beside her father. The pall bearers were chosen from her school mates and most intimate friends and are as follows: Misses Ada Bond, Nannie Stevens, Estella Roark, Georgia Stevens and Edith and Clara Cremer.

Leslie, one of the oldest and best known citizens of Cole County, died at his home two miles southwest of Russellville Sunday night at 11 o'clock p.m. from general debility and an acute attack of liver and kidney troubles, at the age of 83 years.

A few years later his wife died and in 1848 he was married to Miss Elizabeth Starks. He was the father of nine children, six of whom are living. They are Dr. C.B. Leslie of Meade, Kan., John G.

Hood of Centertown, assisted by Rev. Pulis of Spring Garden and were attended by a large crowd of sorrowing relatives and friends, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Enloe Cemetery.

My Gt. Gt. Grandfather, Silas FANNIN and part of his children disappeared from county records (Wayne County, WV) around 1887. My great grandmother, Rebecca (Fannin) Workman disappeared after her divorce in 1877. I havent been able to locate records of them anywhere else in WV or OH. It has been suggested to me that they may have left the area either with the Mormon movement or following them, then may have settled in Missouri, possibly Holden. Silas and wife Mary (Polly) had children: George Washington, Mary Bell, and Calista in the 1880 Wayne County, WV Census that I have not been able to locate. It was passed down that Rebecca "remarried and moved away," but no one could remember who she married or where they moved. Please look for these names and let me know if you find them in Missouri. Thank you. Ralph
