The Lexington Gazette, Lexington, VA, 17 May 1899
HAYSLETT - Mrs. Hayslett, wife of Dr. A. J. Hayslett, of Denmark, died at her home Monday afternoon, May 15, aged about sixty years. Dr. Hayslett was in Lexington that day and on his return home late in the afternoon found his wife sitting in her chair dead. The servant had been out of the house for some time attending to her duties, so Mrs. Hayslett was entirely alone at the time of her death.
Mrs. Hayslett was a daughter of the late Mr. Andrew Sloan, at one time a prominent mechant of Lexington, and a niece of Mrs. Dr. James R. Jordan. She had been in delicate health for a number of years. She is survived by her husband and two sisters, Mrs. Sclater, of Palmyre, Fluvanna county, and Mrs. Goodloe, of Goshen.
Mrs. Hayslett was a woman possessed of many admirable qualities of heart and mind and had by her gentle a winning manners, attracted to herself a wide circle of friends.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. A. Penick Tuesday afternoon from the home of Dr. Hayslett. The interment was made in the graveyard at New Monmouth church.
