Mrs. George L. Hull, of Morristown, New Jersey, died at the Carrolton Hotel, in Baltimore, on Wednesday evening, under very sad circumstances. Mr. and Mrs. Hull were married in New York on the 23d of February last, and went to Baltimore on their bridal tour. Mr. Hull was taken ill with rheumatism the second day after their arrival. He was sick some time and, before his recovery, his young wife was seized with a heavy cold, which ran into pneumonia, of which she died just one month after her marriage.
Mrs. Hull was a daughter of Hon. S. A. Foot, of Geneva, New York, and was about twenty-five years of age. Her sisters, Miss Foot and Mrs. Whittredge, of New York, and Mr. Hull's father, were present at her death. The remains will be taken to Morristown, New Jersey, where her husband resides.
The above extract, from the New York Times, will have a sad interest for the many friends of Mrs. Hull in Colorado. During her residence in Denver, from June, 1870, until the spring of 1872, Miss Jennie Foot made many warm and devoted friends, for, although then very young, she had but few superiors as a member of society, a worker in the church, or a Sunday school teacher.
The loveliness of her person, the strength of character she displayed through the terrible bereavements she was called upon to bear while here, and her very many charms of heart and intellect, won the respect and admiration of all who met her, while in her Sunday school pupils and those who knew her intimately, was aroused a deep and strong affection, that has made her memory almost a living presence with them ever since.
