News of the death of Emma C. Boone at Fort Worth, reached Honey Grove Tuesday morning. The news came as a distinct surprise, as no one here had heard that she was ill. Deceased suffered an attack of apoplexy Monday and death followed early Tuesday morning.

Mrs. Boone had long been a member of the Presbyterian church. She was a woman of deep piety and a constant student of the Scriptures. She delighted in the services of the sanctuary and was a leader in religious work. She is survived by two children--Mrs. W. F. Barnum and John K. Boone, both of Fort Worth.
