She was a most lovable and kind hearted soul and all who knew her loved her. Her death while not unexpected at one so far in years, was indeed a sad blow and the family have the sincere sympathy of their many acquaintances and friends.

Her children living are Messrs. Life, Cash and Perry Hutchinson, Mrs. Fletcher Collins, Mrs. Jennie Fleming and Mrs. C. W. Williard, of Kentucky, all but the last named were in attendance at her death and funeral, which later was held Monday morning at the Methodist church Rev. Foresman preaching the sermon, after which she was buried at Greenwood cemetery.

NOTE: The above transcription was made from a photocopy of the original newspaper article. Errors were not corrected. The family spelled their last name Hutchison, without an "n" in the middle. "Life" was a nickname for Eliphaz Hutchison; "Cash" was the nickname of his brother Cassius M. Hutchison. There was no Mrs. C. W. Williard, but Mrs. Jennie (Sarah Jane) Fleming lived in Kentucky, possibly in the town called Willard. The obituary fails to give the name of the other daughter, Mrs. Amanda Woodford who also lived in Council Grove.
