The people of Walhalla were shocked Monday to receive the an nouncement of i he sudden death at Woodbury, Ca., of Mrs. C. C. Reid, for years a resident of Walhalla, but for some time past a resilient of Woodbury, where she was making her home with her son, Charles S. Redd, and family. While Mrs. Reid had for months been in poor health, her friends here were not prepared for the announcement of her death, and it brought great sorrow to the entire town and community. The immediate cause of death was stran gulated hernia, an outgrowth of a trouble of long standing. Mrs. Reid was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas M. Strib ling and was born In this county, her parents at the time of her birth re siding on Toxaway. She was just rounding out her (Otb year, having been born .Inly 28, 1 S 16. For many years she, with ber hus band, the late? C. L. Reid, made their home in Walhalla. In early life they were married, settling here when Walhalla was but a mere mountain village, and in consequence of their long residence in the place, and their uniform kindness and good will, wherever they were known they were loved. Mrs. Reid was a woman ol' fine traits of character, a good neigh bor, kind and ever thoughful ol' the needs of the poor about her. one of whom was never turned away empty from her home, lt was char acteristic of her that she was never better pleased than when doing something for friend or neighbor, and her solicitude for I he comfort of those in sorrow or distress was man ifest ?it all times. In her passing away truly a good woman has been called to her reward, and lhere are noni' who know her who do not sor row with the bereaved ones of her fa ni i ly. Mrs. Reid is survived by two sons and three daughters Chas. S. Redd, of Woodbury, fia.: .1. H. Reid, of Batesburg, S. C.; Miss Roxie Reid, of Woodbury, and Mrs. Kihi R. Hollo man and Miss Annie Reid, of Hates burg. Two brothers and one sister also survive, they being Hon. Sloan Y. Stribling. of Roswell, Ca.; Col. I. C.
