Many years ago, when the first effort was made to solicit funds to provide a public library for Savannah, the town was astonished, says the Reporter, when the committee of the good women of the town succeeded in collecting $40 for that purpose. The leader on the committee as well as in many similar benevolent enterprises, Mrs. W. A. Price died last week, aged 84 years, having lived to see many of her plans for public welfare in Savannah fulfilled beyond the fondest hopes of those early years.
