Nanny O. Rutherford

RUTHERFORD, Nannie - She is gone, forever gone. Death lies on her like an untimely frost upon the sweetest flower of the field. Little Nannie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Rutherford, died Dec. 21st, 1876 with inflammation of the stomache and lungs. She was a bright and promising babe often months. The announcement of the above sent a gloom over our entire village and neighborhood. S.E.H. Billingsley, Ark., Jan. 5th, 1877. [Fayetteville Democrat 1/20/77]
