she DIED OF JOY.
Pretty Seraphine Roth Expires Two
Hours After Being Proposed to.
Eroun III. Ne,r York Star

Pretty Seraphine Roth Expires Two
Hours After Being Proposed to.
From the Netc York Star.
Only two days ago pretty Seraphine Roth
was bright and clipper, and full of life and
hope. Now she lies dead at her aunts
apartments. at No. 3O6 East SD street.
The physicians say she died of heart disease,
but the real cause of her death is thought
to have been sudden joy, brought on by
finding herself engaged to be married to an
estlmable young man who had been court
ing her for many months
The story of Seraphine's life is sad one.
She was born in New Orleans twenty-three
years ago and lived there until eight months
ago, when her mother died. Then she came
to this city to live with her aunt. She soon
formed the acquaintance of young man,
who became very attentive to her and fire.
quently visited her at her aunt's house.
Their friendship ripened into more tender
feeling, and on Tuesday afternoon her
sweetheart called on her and proposed mar
riage.
She blushingly accepted his offer, and he
promised to call later to make arrange
ments for the ceremony. After he had
gone her heart began to iutter, and for
short time she seemed to be treading on air.
Then she became ill and laid down, think
ing it would pass away. But the illness
never left her, for two hours later she was
dead. Her sudden joy at her sweetheart's
proposal had killed her.
The coroner was notified, and DR.. Jenkins
held an autopsy and pronounced her death
due to heart disease. The young lady's
father has been notified and the funeral
will be delayed until he arrives here.

years ago, and have not heard a word from
Will since ne left, aud don't know where
be is, and don't know what has happened
to him, poor Will, and cannot let you also
go, for | am old and depeudent
on YOU" His reply was: Mother, |
must go and save that one man, and if am
lost, God will take care OF you in your old
days" The lifeboat put out, and after an
awful struggle with the sea they picked the
poor fellow out of the rigging just in time
to save his life, and stated for the shore.
Aud as they came within speaking distance
Harry, just before be tainted from the over
exertion, cried ont: ave saved him, and
tell mother it was brother Will" Oh, yes,
my friends, let US start out to save some
one for time and for eternity, some man,
some woman, some child. And who knows
but it may, directly or indirectly, be the
salvation of one of our kindred. and that
will be an exploit worthy of celebration
when the world itself is shipwrecked and
the sun hes gone out like spark from a
smitten anvil and all the stars are dead
