PETTIGREW, Adaline BREWSTER - Mrs. Adaline Pettigrew, relict of Mr. Charles Pettigrew, died at her home in Prairie Grove, Thursday evening, April 23, at 6 o'clock, from a complication of diseases and infirmities of old age.

The deceased was born in East Tennessee, April 22, 1845, and was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jeremiah Brewster. She came with her parents to Arkansas, settling on Cove Creek, when quite young. Later in life she was married to Mr. Charles Pettigrew at Strickler, Ark., who died a number of years ago. Mrs. Pettigrew took an orphan child when quite young and gave her a mother's love and a home. She is now 14 years of age, and was a faithful and dutiful child to her foster mother.

Mrs. Pettigrew lived a quiet life and in her modest way won many friends, who were constantly at her bedside during her last illness and death.

The funeral took place from the Cumberland Presbyterian church Friday afternoon, Rev. John F. Parker conducting the services, and she was buried in the family lot in the Prairie Grove cemetery. She is survived by two sisters, Mrs. A.T. Strickler of Prairie Grove, and Mrs. Martha Tatum of Telluride, Col., and two brothers, Messrs. John Brewster of Cane Hill and Hiram Brewster of Cove Creek.
