    "After a critical illness of some six weeks, caused by a fall, Mrs. Elizabeth A. Magee, widow of David Magee, died on Friday night at the home of her grandson, D. C. Wood. 'Aunt Lizzie,' as she was commonly called was born near Madisonville, St Tammany Parish, in 1836, but become a resident of this parish and town in 1850, where she resided till her death, doing much in the way of loving care and sympathy for those around her. Having lost all of her own children, she in middle life took four grandchildren to raise and continued her care and 'mothering' for a large band of great grandchildren. She is survived by one brother, Simon Peak, of Baton Rouge, and two sisters, Mrs. Zay Garrett and Mrs. Ed Metz of this parish. Interment took place on Saturday at 2 P.M. in the family burial ground one mile below town. We extend sincere sympathy to the sorrowing relatives."
