KIMMSWICK ITEMS - by ZULU - Kimmswick, Mo., April 12, 1881 - The sudden
death of Mrs. Dr. SPALDING on last Thursday night caused a gloom to
spread over the neighborhood that will remain long in the memories of
the friends of that estimable lady. Although it was generally known
that she was very sick for the last two or three days previous to her
death, it was not thought that the result would be death. The funeral
took place on Saturday. A large number of friends of the family were
present. The Rev. Mr. SMART, of St. Louis, delivered the address,
clearly showing the Christian character of the deceased.
