It shifts to a memorial for Lenora McPadden Funderburk, detailing her birth in 1849, nursing during epidemics, Bible storytelling, and decades of charity. Her funeral was held at Dudley with several grandsons as pallbearers.
Rems from Indian Trail reports a series led by Prof H M Baucom and teachers from Matthews and Monroe ending with a strong program. Students performed well, Mr W of Monroe spoke on The Man on the Job, and Miss Ruth Morroche presented an interlude. Local hospitality, weather plus market notes and cotton prices conclude the column.
