Sibby Ann Graham Padgett

Funeral of Mrs. Padgett.

Funeral services over the remains of Mrs. Sibby A. Padgett, whose death occurred Sunday, took place this afternoon from her late rsidence, 212 North Fairfax street. Rev. J. P. Stump of the Methodist Episcopal Church South officiated and the interment was made at Bethel cemetery. The name of Mrs. Pagett was been closely associated with the local history of the civil war operations in 1861, for it was she who made the confederate flag which floated from the Marshall House, on King street, thereby bringing about the tragedy which resulted in the death of Col. Ellsworth and Mr. James Jackson, the hotel propietor.
