McALISTER, Mrs. H.P. - Mrs. H.P. McAlister passed quietly away last Wednesday morning at 5 o'clock after a short illness. She was taken suddenly last Friday night with stomach trouble. Dr. Sewell was called and everything was done that could be done to relieve her suffering but the doctor's skill was baffled by the terrible hold of the ailment and then the end came. Mrs. McAlister was a good, kind, christian lady, loved and respected by all who knew her. She grew up to womanhood and was married at Decatur where she will sleep the long sleep. Mr. McAlister and children have the sincere sympathy of the whole community.
