Miss Sally Robbins, sister of T.M. Robbins, died at the Robbin's House last Monday evening, aged 74 years. For several weeks she had been confined to her room and death was expected some time before she was finally relieved from suffering. She was a member of the Methodist church and was a devout Christian, though on account of the infirmities of age she has not been active in church work for several years. Funeral services were held at the hotel on Wednesday morning and were conducted by Rev. J. W. Greene. Her remains were taken to the old cemetery near Yountsville for internment.
