Obituary reads as follows: Mrs. Sallie Stewart died at her home near Hagarville Saturday, May 8, after several weeks illness, and was buried in the family grave yard Sunday. Rev. Walker conducting the funeral services. Many relatives and friends paid their last tribute of respect there. Mrs. Stewart was 81 years old, and had resided where she died for 60 years. She was born in Bledsoe County, east Tennessee, Sept. 27, 1833. After the death of her husband, four years ago, she could not be persuaded to leave the old homestead.
