...In company with her husband, the unfortunate woman arrived at the home for a visit from their home in the southeastern part of the state. After arising this morning, she retired to her room later, and it was thought she had taken a nap to rest from her journey... She was between 40 and 45 years of age and besides her husband is survived by five children. The children did not accompany the parents on the trip. No reason for the act is known but she had been in poor health since last winter, when she suffered a severe attack of influenza.
