Aged Callaway Woman Dead.
Mrs. Nancy P. Thomas Passed Away at Home of Son, Southwest of Fulton, Monday Evening.
Mrs. Nancy P. Thomas, about 88 years old, widow of Felix Thomas, died at 6:40 o'clock Monday evening at the home of her son, George W. Thomas, southwest of Fulton, after a short illness with influenza and infirmities of advanced age.
Funeral services were conducted at the Mount Carmel church, southwest of Fulton, at 3:00 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon by the Rev. L.M. Dimmitt, of this city. Burial was in the church cemetery.
Mrs. Thomas was born on a farm south of fulton, being a daughter of Solomon Craighead, an early day Callaway county farmer. Fifty either years ago she was married to Felix Thomas, and with the exception of a year or two in Audrain county, she spent her entire life in the community in which she died. Her husband died about fourty years ago.
One son, George W. Thomas, at whose home she died, one brother, James Craighead, of California, and one sister, Mrs. Margaret Nichols, of this city, survive her. Three children died in their infancy.
Mrs. Thomas was a life-long member of the Presbyterian church, her membership having been with the Ebenezer Presbyterian church for many years. A good, home-loving mother, companion, and neighbor, and strict in her religious teachings, her passing is a source of deep sorrow to the entire community. She will be missed mostly by those who knew her best, and they, with the many other friends of the family, join the Gazette in extending sympathy to the bereaved ones in the time of their grief.
