She had been ill only about a week and her malady was not regarded as serious even by her physician and family until on Friday when it assumed a malignant character. Dr. Bristow of Princeton, was called in consultation with the local physicians and later Dr. Bamford, of Centerville, and an operation was contemplated as the only means of relief, but so rapidly had the disease progressed in its course that it was decided that an operation would not avail to save her life. The complaint was an abscess of the ear, which involved the brain as well as causing blood poison, the first attack being on Saturday morning a week before her death. So sudden and unexpected was her death that it was deficient for the people of the community to realize that the bright girl, so full of health, live and animation had been forever removed from their midst and to them her death assumed almost the character of a tragedy. For some years she had been bookkeeper and clerk in her father's store and meeting everybody in that capacity she made friends of all and her friends and acquaintances were numbered by thousands and their sorrow was in every heart for her untimely death. She was the only daughter of the family and how many bright hopes were blasted and how many of the tenderest ties known to human hearts were ruthlessly asundered by her death cannot be told. It was known to her family and intimate friends that she was engaged to be married to a well known and respected young man of Decatur county and the event which was to have taken place in September was looked forward to with brightest hopes and anticipation of long years of happiness, which adds its measure of pathos to the sad event. For her stricken family and for all who loved her, every heart is filled with sympathy. The funeral was held from the M.E. Church South on Sunday afternoon and few ever held here have been more largely attended. The large church was filled to overflowing and hundreds were unable to gain admission. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful and few of the large throng refrained from tears as they gazed for the last time upon the form resting so peacefully amid the flowers. The following obituary is contributed by J. L. Weatherford: Allie Florence Varney, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Varney was born in Lineville, Aug. 8th, 1888 and died at her home in Lineville, Aug. 7th, 1909, she lacked one day of being 21 years old at the time of her death. Allie was just entering the morning of life, when she was summoned from this world to the world beyond. She was of a lively cheerful disposition; the echo of her laughter will linger long in memories halls. She was the joy and light of that sacred place we love the most, and call home. She had a kind word and a pleasant smile for everybody. She loved all the children and the children loved her, and many children to whom she gave presents will miss her tokens of love and kindly words. She went away in the morning while the rising sun was smiling away the frowns of night, it seems that she is not gone, for the sound of her voice lingers with us still. May she sweetly sleep beneath the beautiful flowers the gift of loving bonds. She leaves to mourn her loss parents, and her brothers and a host of friends. The relations have the sympathy of the entire community in bereavement. Card of Thanks To the many friends and neighbors who gave us their sympathy for our time of trouble and sorrow we desire to express our heartfelt thanks and to assure them that their kindly ministrations will long be remembered by us with grateful hearts. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Varney and family
