She had been an invalid for a few years, but there was no indication that the end was near until a short time previous to her death, and the shock to her family and other relatives was therefore quite severe. She was 45 years of age and was a daughter of Wm. Webb, one of the county's good families. Mrs. Shortridge was a most excellent woman, devout in church work, and a devoted wife and mother. The husband and children have sustained the greatest possible loss by her death and much sympathy goes out to them from all who knew the deceased.
