Mrs. Penelope Thompson (Aunt Penny) died Wednesday morning at her home one mile south of here. She had been quite feeble for a long time as a result of old age, and died very peacefully, surrounded by the family of her grandson, Mr. Will Thompson, who resided with her. She was perhaps the oldest person in the county, being in her 97th year at the time of her death. Mrs. Thompson was a native of North Carolina. She was the mother of Mr. David Thompson, Mrs. Rhody Beasley and Miss Polly Thompson, who reside in this county. Her remains were buried yesterday at Cowells Chapel Cemetery by the side of some of her children and other relatives whom she had so long survived.
