    Notes:

    Died:
    Invalid Didn't Let Wheel Chair Keep Her Down; Sold Needlework

    Special To The News-Sentinel
    Athens, Tenn., Dec 28

    She had to stay in a wheel-chair, but that didn't "keep her down." She wanted to earn her own money, and she did.

    The story of how Mrs. Sarah Ellen Saulpaugh developed a home industry was told as word came of her death at the home of a daughter, Mrs. Joe Schuligan, in Santa Rosa, Texas. Eighteen months ago, Mrs. Saulpaugh went to live with her daughter. She was the widow of the late George L. Saulpaugh of Calhoun, Tenn.

    Her right hip was broken in 1900 by a fall, but after several years she walked again with the aid of crutches. Ten years ago her left hip was broken by a fall. Since then she has been in a wheel chair.

    She insisted that "where there's a will, ther's a way." She started embroidering, tatting and other needle work. Her sisters and friends formed a sales organization. They helped sell pillows and boudoir articles which she made. Also cloth rabbits, cats, dogs and dolls. These went to markets in New York, Boston, Baltimore, Michigan, Florida, Iowa, Tennessee and the West.
