be recorded Is that of Mrs. James Car

was a daughter of Mrs. James J. Dyer,
of Prospect avenue, and a plater of

ago her husband's health demanded
a chango of climate and they went to
Norfolk. She became sick recently, and
it was necessary that an operation
should be performed on her. There was
every reason to believe that It was suc
cessful nnd last Thursday night she
wrote a letter stating her hope to be
well In a short time. The letter reached
hor mother Saturday morning, and at
10 o'clock, an hour afterward, a tele
gram arrived announcing her death.
She was a young woman of beautiful
character, and her death Is deplored
by all who had the pleasure of her ac
quaintance. The body has been re
moved from Norfolk and the funeral

er; Interment will be made In Forest

relatives are expected to attend.
