SUDDEN DEATH OF AN AGED TAYLOR WOMAN

Stricken with an attack of the heart while crossing Timlin's field in Taylor, Mrs. Henry James, aged seventy years, died within a few minutes after being taken to her home in that borough last evening. Mrs. James had been visiting friends in Wilkes-Barre during the day and was on her way home from the railroad station when she collapsed in the field. Anna Green, a young girl, saw her fall and secured aid. The woman lived only a few minutes after she had been taken to her home.

She is survived by her husband and the following children: Samuel, of Taylor; Daniel, of Greenwood; Mrs J. M. Sickler, of Lake Winola; Mrs. W. J. Edmunds, of Scranton, and Mrs. W. J. Smith, of Taylor; also by two sisters, Mrs. Alfred Hatten, of Scranton, and Mrs. W. J. Edmunds, of Oregon.
