Deceased had been failing in health since last May, and several times recently her condition had been considered quite critical, but recently she had seemed to be improving somewhat, and she was able to be about the house. While sitting on the front porch after dinner she suddenly gasped for breath and died almost instantly.

Her husband and six children survive her: Ella, wife of George Davis, of New Holland; Horace, of Honeybrook; Wood W. of New Holland; Linnie, wife of Harry Hemphill, of Columbia; and John and Charles of New Holland. Three step-children also survive: Miss Lizzie (Elizabeth), of New Holland, Tillie (Matilda), wife of Adam Krick, of Upper Leacock; and Emma, wife of Charles Lewis, of Philadelphia.
