LONG LIFE ENDED
Mrs. Susan Hinkle, Expired Yesterday Evening
End Came as the Result of Stroke of Paralysis
Mrs. Susan Hinkle, one of the well known and esteemed residents of Jefferson Township, died yesterday evening at her home near Goldsmith, her death coming as a result of a stroke of paralysis, which attacked her one week ago today. Mrs. Hinkle was seventy-nine years of age at the time of her death.
The good woman was a native of the Old Dominion, she having been born in that state January 11, 1829. Her maiden name was Phares, and her parents were among the pioneers of that part of Virginia, which afterwards became West Virginia.
After the marriage of Mr. and Mrs., they moved to Tipton County, they meaning only to come here on a visit, but they were so well pleased with the opportunities, which the west offered that they concluded to stay here. That was in 1849, and they located on a farm near Goldsmith, that being the farm on which both died. Enos Hinkle, her husband died July 10, 1889.
There were born to them twelve children, they being John W. Hinkle, Joab, Ambrose, George, Sylvanus, Jacob, deceased, Mary C. Coppock, Martha L. Hinkle, deceased, Susan Ellis, Virginia Jones, Sarah J. Bowers and Enos C. Hinkle.
Since coming to Tipton County, Mrs. Hinkle had not been outside the state, she never having been further from home than Hamilton County, where she went on a visit to friends. The husband left the state but once after coming here, he returning to Virginia for a visit on one occasion.
Mrs. Hinkle had resided in that section of the count so long that came to know every resident within a radius of many miles, and all held her in the highest esteem, she being a lady of most excellent qualities.
Back in the pioneer days of the county she came to know the hardships, as she was one of the mothers who reared a large family amide the meager opportunities of that day. She is a lady who will be missed by all who knew her and her death will be a cause for genuine regret.
The funeral services will be held tomorrow at 10 o’clock at the Tetersburg Church, the services being conducted by Rev. Parker, of Goldsmith. The burial will be at the Tetersburg Cemetery.
