Mrs. J. G. Tooke died at Valley Springs, Llano county, on the 19 inst., of consumption. She had been a great sufferer. Mr. Tooke had but recently moved to that county from this, and left Mrs. Tooke here, until he could prepare a home, taking all of his children with him except one small one that remained here with its mother. Mr. T. came a few weeks ago after his invalid wife, who was very weak. but wanted to go to her children, and with the hopes that the trip would improve her health. She died the third day after arriving home, just time to give her loved ones a parting blessing. Mrs. T. has several brothers and sisters living in this county She was a loving companion, a devoted mother, a kind neighbor, a pure Christian, holding her membership in the Baptist Church.
