Mrs. Nettie Jackson, wife of Mr. E. T. Jackson, died at the Florence Infirmary Friday morning. Mrs. Jackson had been seriously ill for several days with an infection of the throat. She was taken to the infirmary for treatment and for several days her condition was so much improved that strong hopes were entertained for her recovery. But the day before her death she took a turn for the worse and despite the efforts of skilled physicians she passed away.

Befor her marriage Mrs. Jackson was a Miss Hamilton, being a daughter of Mr. W. W. Hamilton, Sr. who lives near town. She was 48 years of age and had spent hte portion of her life in Dillon and vicinity. In addition to her father and mother and several brothers and sisters, she is survived by the following sons and daughters: W. A. Jackson of Seattle, Wash.; S.S. Jackson of Florence; R.M. Jackson of Dunbar; Dewey, Hoyt, Clarence and Misses Pat, Blanche and Beulah Jackson of Dillon.

Mrs. Jackson was a good Christian woman and she will be missed not only in the community but also in her home where she was a devoted wife and a kind and affectionate mother.

She was laid away at Mt. Holly Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock, the services being conducted by Rev. Joel I. Allen.
