Found Dead in Garden
Mrs. W. R. Sparks, died unattended from heart failure.
"A Gloom has been cast over the neighborhood of Rocky Springs by the death of Mrs. W. R. Sparks, which occurred Wednesday evening, June 17th. The dead body of Mrs. Sparks was found in the garden at their home about 5 o"clock in the evening, death having come upon her while engaging in gathering vegetables. Her death occurred sometimes between 3 & 5 O'clock, as she was seen and talked to by members of the family after 4 O'clock. Her remains were interred at Rocky Springs yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Sparks leaves a husband and children and many relatives and friends who deeply regret her death, and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved relatives in their sad affliction. "
