DEATH CLAIMS MRS. MAGGIE P. BEAVERS
Was Second Victim of Typhoid
Interment in the Cemetery at Woodbine Last Sunday - Her Husband and Four Children Survive Her
Typhoid fever claimed its second victim here last Friday when Mrs. Maggie Priscilla Beavers, wife of Levi Beavers, died at her home on East Street.
For several weeks she had been very ill with the fever and the contributory cause of her death, tuberculosis, so weakened her condition as to make impossible her recovery. Mrs. Beavers was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Thomas, of this county, and was thirty-three years old. She is survived by her husband and four children. The funeral was held last Sunday afternoon at Woodbine church, a few miles from Manassas, and the remains were interred in the cemetery at that place. This death took place within a few yards of the home of D. J. Myers, whose family is now convalescent of fever, and in the vicinity where most of the cases in Mnaassas are located.
