Royal Center, May 3—The wheels of life and death spun once more yesterday, carrying
away the spirit of Mrs. Isaac Allen, 64, living six miles northeast of here, while her husband, critically ill in the same room in which she passed away Wednesday afternoon at 3:30o'clock, knows nothing of her death. Both have been delirious of pneumonia, confined in the same room since they were taken down with the dread plague a week ago, and neither knew the true condition of the other for more than forty-eight hours previous to the wife's death.
While arrangements are going ahead for Mrs. Allen's funeral, her husband, age 75, is
fighting for his own life in the room where she passed away yesterday, too delirious to know that his wife had expired. It was said yesterday that he would not be able to live much longer.
Surviving Mrs. Allen are the seriously ill husband, a daughter, Mrs. James Thomas, of near Winamac, and two sons, Andrew of Wheatfield, and Hiram of Star City. The funeral will be held at 2 p. m. Friday at Victor Chapel church, and burial will be in the adjoining cemetery.
