Friends were grieved to hear of the very sudden passing of Mrs. Ellen Brill, Saturday evening. Mrs. A. G. Johnston, who lives in rooms at the Brill home, thought she could smell something burning and upon investigating, going into Mrs. Brill's room found it full of smoke, caused by the burning of a pan of soup Mrs. Brill had placed on the stove in preparation of her supper meal. Mrs Johnston found Mrs Brill lying partly on the bed, dead. A physician was summoned and pronounced it a stroke, as Mrs Brill had high blood pressure and had not been so well the last week, but was able to be up and about her work. Her husband, G. Brill, passed away a few years ago and Mrs. Brill continued to live in her home here since his death. Adair Brill, living north of Eagleville, is her son, and had been very attentive to his mother. Funeral services have not been arranged at this date.
