Ripley, Tennessee      Enterprise   Friday          March 13th,1925

   HENNING---Mrs. T. P. SCOTT---One of the saddest deaths to occur in our
midst in sometime was that of Mrs. T. P. Scott Friday night, March
6th.  Mrs. Scott was taken ill Wednesday with flu, and Saturday
following, pneumonia developed in a very stubborn form.  She was given
every attention that a faithful doctor, two capable and devoted nurses
and loved ones could render, but they could not stay the hand of
death. The Master had work for her in His Vineyard, May the same dear
Master minister comfort to a heart stricken father and guide the
footsteps of four dear children who are left motherless so young, in the
path of their dear mother.
  Before her marriage, Mrs. Scott was Miss Nora Boydstun, daughter of the
late Ward Boydstun, and resided in Ripley for many years.  Besides her
husband and children, she is also survived by two sisters; Mrs. Clara
Tarrant of Ripley and Mrs. F. B. Bradford of Gates; two
brothers; C. B. Boydstun of Ripley and Elbert Boydstun of San
Diego, Calif.  The remains were laid to rest in Maplewood Cemetery Saturday
afternoon, following funeral services held at the family residence.
