Mrs. Seymour Dead

Mary Irene SEYMOUR, aged 45 years, 1 month and 6 days, died at her home here Wednesday morning, 
March 18, 1914, at 8 o'clock, after an illness extending over several months. The remains were laid to 
rest in Glenwood cemetery beside those of her husband, Dr. F. B. SEYMOUR, this morning at 10 o'clock, 
the religious services being held at the residence and the last sad rites at the grave were witnessed 
by a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends.

Mrs. Seymour is survived by five children, four daughters and one son. They are Misses Bessie, Anita, 
Mona and Roberta, and Forest B., all residing here. She is also survived by her father, W. B. HATCH of 
Papalote, three brothers - George, Will and Bert - and one sister, Mrs. Oswell SKIDMORE of Alice. She was 
the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. HATCH and grew to young womanhood at Papalote, where she met 
Dr. F. B. SEYMOUR when he was a young physician and located at Skidmore.

Mrs. SEYMOUR was a member of Beeville Chapter, No. 422, Eastern Star, and was secretary of the order 
at the time of her death. She was also a past matron. She was a splendid, Christian woman, loved by all 
who knew her and her death has cast a shadow over the city, and the deep sympathy of friends is 
extended to the orphaned children in this, their saddest hour.
