death, Oh the 10Th inst, of Mrs. George

She has been in delicate health for nearly
three years and much of that time has
been passed in various health resorts, in
the vain hope of a complete restoration to
health, and without doubt her life has
been prolonged by that means. Two
years ago she spent several months in the
Adirondacks and the last winter she and
her daughter spent in Las Vegas and in
FL PasO, Tex. Encouraging reports have
been received from her at various times
through the summer, and few weeks ago
Mr.. Weston, who has been with her the
greater part of the time, returned here for
a short stay Monday of last week he was
summoned to Las Vegas by telegram and
left at once, accompanied by Mrs. WeStOn's
mother Mrs. Phelps. They reached there
the day before Mrs Weston died. The
body was brought home for burial and the
funeral will be held at the family residence
on Henry street at 2 Z. NJ. today. Mrs.
Weston leaves one daughter, Miss Ger
trude, who was the constant and devoted
attendant of her mother during her long
and painful illness. Mrs. Weston leaves a
large circle of friends here who mourn her
death very sincerely. She was particular
