Mrs Haynes Dead:  Mrs W J Haynes, Sr, who was stricken with paralysis over a year ago and  from which time she has been an invalid, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs J T Byrd, in this city Thursday night at ten o'clock.  For the past several weeks Mrs Haynes has been in a critical condition and the end was expected at any moment.

The deceased was the mother of a large family, many of whom now have "silver threads among the gold," as a reminder that they too, are nearing life's sunset.  She is survived by her aged husband, Dr W J Haynes, and six children, five of whom are daughters, and all are married except the two youngest, a son and daughter.

Interment was made at the city cemetery yesterday afternoon where impressive funeral services were held, after which all that was mortal of this grand old mother of Israel was tenderly laid to rest to await the resurrection morn.
