Eckhart--Mrs. John Gracie, of Eckhart, died at the Western Maryland Hospital in Cumberland Monday noon, not long after reaching the hospital. Mrs. Gracie and her three sons, were ill with typhoid fever, and were taken to the hospital for treatment, and care. Mrs. Gracie's death was sudden and unexpected. She was of about middle age and the mother of a large family. She was a most exemplary wife and a woman of many good qualities. She has lived all her life at Eckhart, being well and favorably known. She was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Pingally [sic] of Eckhart. One sister, Mrs. Thomas Eckhart, and a husband and the following children survive: Messrs. John, Harry, Robert and James Gracie and Masters Lewis and Earl Gracie. Mrs. Gracie's death is supposed to be due to the fever and owing to overwork and worry. She had just nursed a grown son through a severe attack of fever, when her three sons and then herself succumbed to the disease. Much sympathy is being shown for the family.
