Douthit Dead: Buried Here/Formerly Miss Olive McMurtrey; Died in Denver, Colo., Wednesday, Mrs. Jess C. Douthit, aged 33, died Wednesday, August 17, at a hospital in Denver, Colo., where she had been ill for two weeks with a heart afflictionand other complications. The remains were brought to the home of her father, Attorney J.M. McMurtrey, here Saturday morning to await the arrival of her husband and father who made the trip from Denver here by motor. Funeral services were conducted Sunday afternoon at four o'clock at Greenwood cemetery by the Revs. Arden P. Blaylock, Harold D. Sadler and Geo. F. Moody. Burial was made in the family lot at Greenwood. The deceased is survived by her husband, who is instructor in electrical engineering at Okmulgee, Okla., her father, one brother, E.L. McMurtrey, both of Rison; and one sister, Mrs. George M. Attwood of Allamore, Texas. Mrs. Douthit who was before her marriage in 1919, Miss Olive McMurtrey, was born here September 12, 1893. She attended the public school and finished high school here. She later entered the University of Arkansas and from this institution she received an L.I. Degree. She was the youngest student in the university at the time she entered. She was awarded a bachelor of science degree from Columbia University and had recently completed a law course at Okmulgee on June 21. She was granted license to practice in all the courts of that state.For three years she was a member of the faculty of the local school, being a teacher of the first and second grades. For several months she had been in failing health and at the time of her collapse was touring the western states with her husband in hopes of improvement. Her stubborn will power and untiring engergy, likely is responsible for her death not coming sooner. In 1914 she professed a faith in Christ and united with the Baptist church, remaining a devoted and loyal member until her death. Few persons possessed a more attractive and winning personality. She was remarkable in making and holding friends. Her brilliant mind coupled with her lofty ideals and ambitions surmounted all obstaclesand knew no limitations. Her Christian character stood out as an example to all who knew her and won love and admiration in every community where she lived. The great crowd of sorrowing friends and the flower banked mound in Greenwood Sunday afternoon was but a small expression of the esteem in which she was held by her friends and loved ones.
