"MRS. FANNIE VIRGINIA RUSHING
On the morning of the 24th of July at Elba, Ala., after a short and
painful illness, Mrs. Fannie Virginia Rushing, wife of Dr. F. M. Rushing,
departed this life in the 35th year of her age, leaving seven lovely
children, a devoted husband, and many relatives and friends to mourn her
loss. In life a general favorite, her death creates general sorrow. She
was conscious of the approach of death, yet ever calm and self-possessed,
prayed fervently and devoted woman in all the relations of life and died
as a Christian, happy. Mrs. Rushing was a member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South, the eldest daughter of Hon. G. T. and Mrs. M. B.
Yelverton of Elba -a lady of rare attainment and most amiable
disposition."
