Mrs. Richard Harding Davis, Wife of Famous Correspondent, Former Stage Star
Paris, Aug. 18 - Mrs. Richard Harding Davis, widow of the famous war correspondent and known in her days on the stage as Bessie McCoy, died Sunday night at a hospital in Bayonne, friends here were informed today. Her daughter, Hope, and Miss Louise Frey, her nurse and companion, were with her when she died.
Mrs. Davis, who was known to thousands as the "Yama Yama girl" a quarter of a century ago, had been summering with her daughter at St. Jean De Luz. A few days ago she was taken ill and hurried to Bayonne the nearest big town, for treatment at the clinic operated by Dr. DeLay.
The body is to be brought here for cremation. The ashes will be sent to the United States, probably to the Davis home in Westchester County, where her husband died 15 years ago.
