MATTIE IRIS (ANDERSON) BARNETT - wife of S. P. BARNETT who lives in the 8th district, died of fever last Tuesday night. She was a daughter of JOSIAH ANDERSON, our accommodating postmaster, one of the most estimable ladies of the community in which she lived, and greatly esteemed by all who knew her. She was a devoted mother, a kind friend to those in need, and her acts of kindness to the unfortunates with whom she was thrown--her husband being superintendent of the county poor house--will ever be treasured to her memory. Her death is a sad bereavement to her husband and little children, one of whom is only about 10 days old, but they have the sympathy of a large circle of friends and relatives. Her burial took place last Wednesday afternoon at the NEELY burying ground. The Democrat extends its sympathy and condolences to the bereaved family. Carroll County Democrat Huntingdon, Tennessee Friday, August 21, 1891
