Warford of this township and daughter of James and Lettie Kirby. She entered peacefully into her rest Saturday, July 1 at 3 p.m. She was born in Howard county, Oct 17, 1880. She obeyed the gospel in her early youth and lived a consistent christian life. She was married to Wm. Warford Feb. 16, 1903. To this union were born four children--three sons and one daughter. Two of the sons have preceded her to the spirit world. She had been a sufferer for many years but for the past two years her health had been improving. Thursday she gave birth to a son. Convulsions followed until death relieved her of her suffering. She leaves a father, mother, two sisters and two children and a host of relatives and friends. A happy home is broken up, a little daughter four years old and a little son are left never to know a mother's love. Funeral services were conducted in a solemn and impressive manner by E. Shelby Smith at New Hope church Sunday afternoon, after which her remains were laid to rest in the cemetery there to await the resurrection morn. To the bereaved husband, father, mother and sisters we extend our heartfelt sympathy. Kathy
