"Mrs. Susan F Franklin died at the home of her daughter and
son-in-law, Dr. and Mrs. C. C. Howard, on North Race Street, Sunday
morning at the age of eighty years of pneumonia. Surviving here are one
daughter and one son, Mrs. Howard and Mr. L. G. Franklin, both of this
place. She also leaves three brothers: Messrs John Saunders of South
Fork, Shield Saunders of Hiseville, James Saunders of Louisville. She
was the widow of the late Mr Garland Franklin, who died about twelve
years ago. Mr. Franklin was born and reared at South Fork, but spent
most of her married life near Coral Hill. She was a consecrated member
of the Christian Church, and was as high a type of lady as could be
found. Funeral services were held at the home of Dr. Howard, Sunday
afternoon, by Rev. Willie Thomas, a relative of Dr. Howard, after which
the remains were taken to the family burial ground near Coral Hill,
where they were laid to rest beside those of her late husband."
