CURRY, Emma J. NEAL - Mrs. Emma J. Curry, wife of Dr. W.J. Curry, died Saturday afternoon at five o'clock at her home in the southeast part of town. She had been in poor health for several years but her condition became so serious a week or two ago that her death had been hourly expected.

Emma Neal was born in Tennessee seventy years ago but came to Arkansas with her parents when quite young. The family settled near Lowell and she was living there when she married Dr. W.J. Curry in 1878. They came to Rogers in the early days of the town and have been among its best known citizens. Mrs. Curry is survived by her husband and seven children: Mrs. Ethel Horn, who lives at home; George Curry Illion, N.Y.; Mrs. Eulala Brandenburg, Independence, Kan.; Mrs. Donna Ogden, Hutchinson, Kan.; John H. Curry, Henryetta, Okla.; W.J. Curry, Jr., Milwaukee, Wis. and Mrs. Edna Williams of Fayetteville. All of the children were here except George and W.J.
