MRS.  TERESA  LUDLOW  DEAD
Well Known Aged Lady Answers the Last Summons
Sunday Morning
----------
          Mrs. Teresa Ludlow,  one of the best known women of Shelbyville, died at her home 333 West Broadway, this city, Sunday morning at a few minutes after nine o'clock.  She was eighty-four years old.  Her native state was New York and her maiden name was  Blankenship.  This good woman was married to  Stephen Ludlow in 1854.  At the time of his death they lived one mile directly west of Marion, this county.  That location was their home for many years.  There they prospered and enjoyed the confidence and good will of all their neighbors.  Both Mr. and Mrs. Ludlow were progressive in their ideas.  Their farm was a model for their day.  Both took a close interest in all matters pertaining to the uplift and betterment of their surroundings. All her life Mrs. Ludlow has been a member of the Methodist Episcopal church.  The funeral will be held at her late home Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock, Dr. Wykoff of the First M.E. church, officiating. Interment will be made in Forest Hill.  The remaining members of Mrs. Ludlow's family are Mrs. E. K. Adams [Nellie], of this city, and Mr. Omer Ludlow, of California.  A step-daughter is Mrs. Eva Bryan [later Eck], of Cleveland.  She has one brother living in Missouri.  Her grand-daughter is  Mrs. B. G. Keeney  and a great grand-son is Master  Edwin Keeney,  son of  Dr. and Mrs. Keeney.  Mrs. Ludlow was a widow thirty-two years.  Since coming to Shelbyville Mrs. Ludlow lived the most of the time on West Broadway. No one in the entire neighborhood had more friends or was held in higher esteem.  She was a friend to all and was so regarded.  It was frequently said of her that a "sweeter, dearer soul never lived."  Friends may call at the home from seven until nine o'clock tonight and up to the hour of the funeral tomorrow.

          Stephen D[ecatur]. Ludlow, one of our oldest and most respected citizens, died at half past 11 o'clock this morning.  He was taken with cholera morbus night before last, from the effects of which he never rallied.  Mr. Ludlow was a native of Ohio, but moved to this county from Lawrenceburg, Indiana, some 45 years ago, and located on a farm near Marion.  He was engaged in the mercantile business at Marion for a number of years, in partnership with Mr. Leander Kennedy, but remained on his farm until a couple of years ago, when he removed to this city.  A wife and a large family of children survive him.  Mr. Ludlow was 75 years old on the 8th of last February.  One of Mr. Ludlow's daughters is the wife of  Mr. E.

          The funeral of the late Stephen D. Ludlow took place yesterday afternoon under the auspices of the Masonic Fraternity, of which order the deceased was a member for very many years. Rev. S. Tincher conducted the services at the residence of  Mr. E. K. Adams, after which the remains were taken to the cemetery [Forest Hill] and interred in presence of a large concourse of sincere mourners.  This community loses an excellent citizen by the death of Mr. Ludlow, and with most heartful agreement all may say, "Peace to his ashes."
