Mrs. Abbie B. Horner, youngest daugh-
ter of Alfred Bateman of Adrian Mich,
formerly OF West Rutland, died recently
at Chetopa, Kansas. She was n lady of
superior culture and accomplishments, and
some of the circumstances attending her
! death are particularly sad. Her husband,
| j. w. Horner, has been for many years
| closely connected with the literary and ed
! vocational interests of Kansas. and was at
! the time of his wife's death editing II pa
per at Chetopa and conducting a school
in which she was also engaged as teacher.
She was stricken down at her post by some
sudden and unknown disease of the brain,
which completely baffled the skill of her
physicians and terminated her existence in
| less than two days. Mr.. Horner resumed
| his duties and continued at his business for
| several weeks, but it soon became apparent
! that his mind was becoming affected, and
after three or four weeks it became ncces-
| sary to place him under surveillance. He
made several attempts at suicide and was
! finally placed in an insane asylum. The
! medical attendants state that unless some
immediate and decided change takes place,
he will become hopelessly insane.
