EDWARDS, Elizabeth J. - {from Cave Springs) Mrs. Andy Edwards died Sunday morning after a short illness with pneumonia. She was not in bed more than a week before her death. It was only a year ago that she was very sick with the same disease and lost two daughters. Mrs. Edwards was faithful in the performing of her duties. Her husband, who survives her, has been an almost helpless invalid for years and her presence will be greatly missed. She was respected by all who knew her. She also leaves two daughters and one son, and a sister, Mrs. Gambill of Rogers, to mourn her death. Her remains were interred in the Highfill cemetery Monday.
Note: She is in Douglas Cemetery.
