Jessamine Journal. Death of The Presidents Wife. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife of the President of the United States, died at the White House at 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon, Cth inst. Death came after a brave struggle of months against Bright's disease, with other complica- tions. The President was completely unnerv- ed by the shock and his grief was heart- rending. He bore up well, however, un der the strain and devoted himself to his daughters. The end came while Mrs. Wilson was unconscious. Her illness took a turn for the worst shortly before 1 o'clock and from that time on she gradually grew worse. President Wilson was holding his wife's hands and their three daughters, Mrs. W. G McAdoo, Mrs. Frances B. Sayre and Miss Margaret Wilson, were kneeling at the bedside when the- - end camo. "Doctor, I am going; take care of Woodrow," were her last words. Both Houses of Congress adjourned when Mrs. Wilson's death was announc- ed and for a brief time the wheels of the Government stopped, while every one paid rrspcct to the President's loss. Telegrams of sympathy were received from all parts of the country, requiring-in- g three operators to handle the message- s-Telegrams were sent to custodians of all Governmentbuildings throughout the land ordering the stars and stripes to be displayed at half mast and to so remain until after the funeral and burial of Mrs. Wilson. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon in the East room of the Wh te House, simplicity, in accordance with the wishes of Mrs. Wilson, characteriz- ing the entire service. After the servi- ces the body was taken to Home. Gs., the burial place of her parents: During the trip through the South the people paid respect by tolling church bells as the special train passed. Christ church, at Alexandria, Va., which George Wash- ington attended, joined in this tribute. Outside of members of the family, only members of the Cabinet and their wives, the members of special committees from the Senate and House, a few intimate friends and the employees of the Whit House were present at the services.

Death of The PresidentsWife.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife of thePresident of the United States, died atthe White House at 5 o'clock Thursdayafternoon, Cth inst. Death came aftera brave struggle of months againstBright's disease, with other complica-tions.

The President was completely unnerv-ed by the shock and his grief was heart-rending. He bore up well, however, under the strain and devoted himself tohis daughters.

The end came while Mrs. Wilson wasunconscious. Her illness took a turnfor the worst shortly before 1 o'clockand from that time on she graduallygrew worse.

President Wilson was holding hiswife's hands and their three daughters,Mrs. W. G McAdoo, Mrs. Frances B.Sayre and Miss Margaret Wilson, werekneeling at the bedside when the-- endcamo. "Doctor, I am going; take careof Woodrow," were her last words.

Both Houses of Congress adjournedwhen Mrs. Wilson's death was announc-

ed and for a brief time the wheels of theGovernment stopped, while every onepaid rrspcct to the President's loss.

Telegrams of sympathy were receivedfrom all parts of the country, requiring-in- g

three operators to handle the message-

s-Telegrams

were sent to custodians ofall Governmentbuildings throughout theland ordering the stars and stripes to bedisplayed at half mast and to so remainuntil after the funeral and burial of Mrs.

Wilson.Funeral services were held Monday

afternoon in the East room of the Wh teHouse, simplicity, in accordance withthe wishes of Mrs. Wilson, characteriz-ing the entire service. After the servi-ces the body was taken to Home. Gs.,the burial place of her parents: Duringthe trip through the South the peoplepaid respect by tolling church bells asthe special train passed. Christ church,at Alexandria, Va., which George Wash-ington attended, joined in this tribute.Outside of members of the family, onlymembers of the Cabinet and their wives,the members of special committees fromthe Senate and House, a few intimatefriends and the employees of the WhitHouse were present at the services.While the services were in p'ogress,both Houses of Congress and all Gov-

ernment departments were closed andall flags were at half mast.
