Description

Eva Anders, colored, better known to the older citizens of Parkville as Eva Woods, died quite suddenly at her home here Sunday. She had many friends among the white people of the community, who thought very kindly of her. She was of the "old school" and the question of "social equality" never disturbed her in the least. She was quite a good nurse, and made herself useful in the community in many ways, and a large number, at least of the older citizens, heard of her death with genuine regret.
