Saturday morning, at her home in Grifton, Mrs. L.J. Chapman passed away, with all of her family who have so tenderly ministered to her during an illness lasting several years, at her bedside. She was in her 63rd years.
Before marriage to Mr. Chapman, she was a Miss Brooks of Pitt County. The deceased is survived by her husband, five daughters, Mrs. J.L. Williams of this city, Mrs. Gladys Charles, Misses Ruth and Marie Chapman of Grifton, and Mrs. George Tomlinson of Wilson, and two sons, Jack and Lloyd Chapman, also of Grifton.
Mrs. Chapman was a fine Christian woman with a strong personality that endeared her to a host of friends. She was a member of the Christian church and the funeral services were conducted by Rev. C.W. Howard of Kinston and Professor Case of Wilson.
Messrs. W.C. Manning, G.H. and T.F. Harrison, J.D. Woolard and Stanley Semmons attended the services, which were held Sunday at 3 o’clock.
