She was the daughter of Mr. J.D. Hall of Juda and was born Nov. 30, 1871. When she was quite young her parents removed to Missouri and spent most of her life there, but after her mother's death, she came to reside and made her home with her uncle, Mr. Erastus Hulbert, where she died, June 22, 1889, aged 17 years, 6 months. Katie was an ambitious girl. It was her aim in life to fit herself for teaching and she strove hard to prepare herself for it, but in so doing she overtaxed a constitution never too strong, and for the past three years has been in failing health, but not seriously ill until quite recently, when she was forced to give up her school and rapidly began to fade away until she died from hasty consumption. Her death was a Christian triumph. While at all times patient and thoughtful of others, during her last illness she was somewhat restless until she was told that her disease would be fatal and that she had not long to live; then she became quiet and resigned and with a firm trust and a bright hope she passed away peacefully on a Saturday morning. She leaves a father and a brother. On Sunday morning, June 23, 1889 a short service was held at her late home, the residence of Mr. Erastus Hulbert, and was conducted by the Rev. R.N. Martin of the Gap Church. It was touching to see assembled her scholars who loved her so dearly. They, with many friends, felt keenly the loss they had sustained. After a brief service, the remains, followed by a large number of friends, were taken to Juda where the funeral services were held at the Baptist Church, of which she was a member, the Rev. J. Andercock officiating. She was laid to rest in the cemetery at Juda.
