Doe Hill Doings.

Doe Hill, May 12.- Again the death angel has visited another home and took from it a beloved wife and mother, Mrs. Benj. Hook, of the Vilna neighborhood, May 10 1903. She had been in delicate health for a number of years, and for sometime her death had been expected. She had been a worthy member of the Methodist church for 55 years, and died in the triumph of a living faith.

Her funeral services will be held today in Bethel church, the officiating minister being her pastor, Rev. M. P. Weikle, near her home. She leaves a host of relatives and friends to mourn her death. Quite a number of her relatives hwre, are attending her funeral. We extend to the family our heartfelt sympathy, especially to the husband who is afflicted and has gotten far down the shady side of life, but the separation will not be for long.

Mrs. Benj. T. Hook.

In addition to what is said in this issue by our Doe Hill correspondent about this good, christian woman, we add that she was a daughter of the late George Armstrong, and was a member of one of the largest and most widely known families of the county. Of her family she is survived by two sisters and three brothers, viz: Oliver and George Armstrong and Mrs. J. M. Armstrong of Fauquier county, Mrs. B. F. Jackson of Rockingham and John M. Armstrong of this county.

She is also survived by her husband, B. T. Hook, who for a long time has been in feeble health, and three children - Mrs. Lucy Curtis and George Hook of the county and Albert Hook of Staunton.

The death of the deceased was due to consumption from which she was a constant but patient sufferer for several years.
