DEATH OF A MOST ESTIMABLE LADY

The death of Mrs. A. S. Reisor which occurred Saturday night, when announced, was received with unfeigned regret by her friends and the friends of her husband, Dr. A. S. Reisor, and her son, Dr. A. S. Reisor Jr., who sympathize with them and other relatives in their great bereavement.

For years Mrs. Reisor had been in ill health, but of late had given encouraging improvement which was comforting to those by whom she was loved tenderly. On last Thursday she was taken ill suddenly, and while she rallied she grew worse Saturday and gently passed away.

The deceased was a woman of lovable disposition and was held in the highest esteem by all who came within the sphere of her gentle and inspiring Christian influence.

The funeral took place from the family residence on Caperton street Sunday afternoon. Rev. H. A. Sumrell officiated. The interment was in Greenwood cemetery.

The pallbearers were Dr. W. K. Sumerlin, E. H. Vordenbaumen, D. B. Seay, Michel Bernstein, Dr. Louis Abramson and F. O. Paul. All of them are connected with the health board, of which Dr. Reisor has been president the past two years.

The deceased is survived by her husband and son, and four brothers, Lee Scott of Point, Texas, and Charles, M. C. and John Scott of this city.

She lived a Christian life. Her reward is in heaven.
