Hog Eye, Washington County, Arkansas
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 of ten months. The announcement of the above sent a gloom over our
entire village and neighborhood. S.E.H. Billingsley, Ark., Jan. 5th, 1877.
