The Nashville American
Wednesday, 3 January 1900


         ESTIMABLE LADY DIES
         
         Mrs. JULIET M. BUMPUS Passes Away at
           Her Son's Home in East Nashville
           
         Yesterday morning at 5 o'clock Mrs. JULIET M.
       BUMPUS died at the residence of her son, W. H.
       BUMPUS, 715 Woodland street. She was in the 75th
       year of her age, having been born in Buckingham
       County, Virginia, Oct. 1, 1825. She was the wid-
       ow of EVANS GEORGE BUMPUS, and was prominently 
       connected in Virginia. She was the only child
       of WILLIAM MONCRIEF HILL and FRANCES LORRAINE
       PERROW. The greater part of her life was spent
       in her native State, to which she was truly
       devoted. Since coming to Nashville to make her
       home, however, she endeared herself to a wide
       circle of friends.
         Mrs. BUMPUS leaves two sons, WILLIAM H.
       BUMPUS and GEORGE D. BUMPUS, the latter of
       Tyler, Tex.
         The funeral services will be held at the
       residence, 715 Woodland street, at 2 o'clock
       this afternoon, Dr. D. C. Kelley and Rev. A. P.
       McFerrin officiating. The following gentlemen
       will act as pall-bearers: Charles H. Sanders,
       C. W. Tolliver, G. W. Gifford, James H. Yar-
       brough, John H. DeWitt and Dr. Charles H.
       Blickensdorfer.
