Thomas, one of the most beloved women of Abbeville County, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. T. Dudley, in the city of Athens, Ga., on last Thursday. Her remains were brought to Abbeville on Friday and the funeral services were held in the Episcopal Church, of which she was a member for many years, by her pastor, Rev. Mr. Jordon, after which her body was laid to rest among her kindred in the burial grounds of that church. The following acted as pall-bearers at Abbeville: Messrs. Robt. L. Cheatham, Mabry Cheatham, J. E. Cheatham, C. D. Cowan, Edwin Parker and R. B. Cheatham, all of them being nephews of the deceased. Several friends of Mr. and Mrs. Dudley and a large number of kindred and friends from Abbeville County attended the funeral services. The following notice of Mrs. Thomas' death is taken from The Athens Banner of Friday: Yesterday morning at half past two o'clock Mrs. Mary Cheatham Thomas died at the home of- her daughter, Mrs. Julius T. Dudley, on Grady avenue, after an illness of several months. Mrs. Thomas came to visit her daughter and was taken ill while here. The best of medical attention and the most loving care availed not to stay the work of the Grim Reaper. For weeks the beloved sufferer awaited the end in the calmness of Christian faith and resignation and when the final moment came it was but one sweet transition from this into the higher life. Mrs. Thomas had frequently visited her daughter in this city and had made scores of warm friends who loved her for her many shining virtues and for her tender and affectionate friendship. Surviving Mrs. Thomas are one son and three daughters, Mr. Charlie B. Thomas, of Abbeville, S. C., Mrs. E. E. Green, of Philadelphia, Mrs. Frank Wilson, of Abbeville, and Mrs. T. J. Dudley, of this city. Mrs. Thomas was the grandmother of Dr. H. T. Brooks, of Memphis, Tenn., and Dr. S. A. Brooks, of New York. Mrs. Thomas was in her seventyfifth year, having been born in Abbeville, S. C., Sept. 26, 1841, the daughter of Bartlett Martin Cheatham and Sarah Elizabeth Cheatham. She was the widow of Dr. James Walter Thomas, who died seventeen years ago. The deceased was a member of the JDpiscopai cnurcn anu was a woman of the highest Christian character. Kind, gentle, affectionate, faithful to every duty, she will be sorely missed by those who loved her. The remains will be carried to Abbeville, S. C., this morning at half past ten o'clock and the funeral will be held at Trinity Episcopal church in that city. The following gentlemen will serve as pall-bearers: Messrs. T. W. Reed, Albon Woods, H R. Simmons, L. C. Smith, Rufus Crane and W. C. Wingfield. MR. A. J. WOODHURST DEAD. Mr. A. J. Woodhurst, one of the oldest citizens of Abbeville County, died at his home in the Lebanon section of the county, Tuesday morning at the advanced age of 84. He had not been in good health for sometime. Mr. Woodhurst was an Englishman by birth. He was born about twenty miles from London. In his early life he was a brickmason by trade. At that trade he did a lot of brick work about Abbeville. He helped build the Episcopal church here. The last time he was in Abbeville he talked to the editor of this paper of having built the chimneys and foundations to the latter's residence, which was erected for Hon. Wm. H. Parker before the war. He did a great deal of other work of this kind about Abbeville. He is survived by his wife, also advanced in years and by several children, grandchildren and other descendants.
