MRS*
MATTIE BRADLEY
ifrs. Mattie Jane (Keating)
Rrdlley entered eternal bliss
?t ten o’clock Friday,
an illness of
injy 9th, after
S four months duration.
5 che was eighty-one years of
^ 1 • ^ -C Onnfl AHTA1*
a native of Sunflower
Jvnty Mississippi. Her miad
„ name was Miley.
All of her ten children have
nreceeded her to a better
»orld except three sons, Mr
Ed Collier, Mr. Lee Collier and
Mai R- Keating. She
Lves twenty-five grand
children and several great
grand children.
She lived in McCrory five
vears, and was married to Mr.
George Bradley, May, 12,
1904, and has since resided in
Springdale. Realizing, that
she had a very short time to
live, she had her youngest son,
Maj. R. B. Keating, come to
Springdale after her the first
of April, and spent two
months at his home in Little
Rock, and three weeks with
her other sons at Tip, on what
she called her “last visits,”
then she wished to return to
her home at Springdale where
she was carried, and cared for
by trained nurses but only
survived seventeen days. Her
son Maj. Keating was with her
for a week before the end and
to the last.
Funeral services were held
in here home and burial in the
Springdale cemetery amid a
large concourse of sorrowing
friends. Thus seemed to end
a long and useful life of one
who possessed a great love
for all things beautiful. But
we know that in reality she
has just entered on the begin
ning of a happier life^with no
ending in a fairer world than
this. —Contributed.

Oh! <nrls, her search will

I know a girl who’s search
ing for a very perfect man
She’s searching over all the
e^rth, she’ll find him if
she can.
He must not smoke, play
cards or fight, dance with
no one but just his wife:
He must, be handsome tall
and straight, with lots of
hair, she scorns bald
plates;
He must be courteous, kind
and good, treat every
damsel as he should.
