cate signed by a physician, to the affect that
Mrs. Maggie Mills, aged 81, had died at No.
ALI West Fifty-fourth street, from voluntary
hamilton" The assistant register
returned the certificate with a request
that the physician furnish further
information. Troubles and misfortune in the
family, together with the loss of 81. 00O stolen
from her, alleged by an adopted daughter,
caused Mrs. Mills to become respondent and
finally insane. Her nephew, Peter Wolf,
took her to his home, 442
Fifth street, and cared for her. Sud.
denly about three weeks ago she ceased
to partake of food. Every effort short of vio-
lence was made to induce her, but she refused
TO swallow anything except water. Nine days
ago she refused to swallow water also, and
from that time she tasted. No effort was made
TO administer food by force or to have her sent
to the hospital, but she was allowed to starve
herself to death.
