Pennington - Mrs. Timothy Morgan Pennington died Thursday of paralysis, aged 64. Some 17 months ago she suffered a stroke, but felt little inconvenience from it, but the fatal one came just after dinner Christmas day and she was never conscious afterward. Mrs. Pennington's maiden name was Goggin and she was born in Pulaski county.

Early in life she united with the Presbyterian church and had been a faithful follower of the meek and lowly Nazarine since. Besides her aged husband five children, Mesdames C.T. Thomson and P. E. Kemp and Messrs. Bourne Goggin Pennington, Eph and Tim Morgan Pennington, are left to mourn the loss of a wife and mother, who was a mother in all the word implies.

Mrs. Pennington was one of those gentle, warm-hearted women, who was never happier than when making others happy and her deeds of kindness, were not confined to her household, but her neighbors and others shared her goodness. Her loss will be keenly felt by all who knew her and loved her for her many noble traits of character. She had frequently talked of dying and had repeatedly expressed her willingness to meet her Maker.

Having lived an upright, Godly life she was not afraid of death, but looked to it as the beginning of a new and blissful life. After services at the home at 10 o'clock Saturday morning by Rev. S. M. Rankin all that was mortal of the loving wife and tender mother was taken to Buffalo Springs Cemetery and laid to rest until the resurrection morn
