She leaves her husband, two children, Mrs. John Carpenter, Ironton, Ohio and Dessie of West Virginia, a father, Judge J. C. C. Johnson, of this city, two sisters, Mrs. Martha Cline and Mrs. Clydia Webb of Ashland, Ky.; one brother Howard Johnson of this city and her stepmother Mrs. Johnson, who was the same as a mother and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her death, which was evidenced by the large number of relatives and friends from her home town that accompanied the body here.
