TAE SILENT REAPER.
The Home Of the Beloved Lucy Stone oil eos-
ter. Invaded.

BosToN, Oct ~ - Mrs. Lucy Stone
Blackwell died at 1915 o'cl5 ok last night.
Her death was not unexpected. For 4s
hours she had been gradually sinking, and
she expired without a struggle. Around
her bed were gathered her immeda' e
family. Her husband and one child, Alice
Stoue Blackwell, survive her
Early last evening she grew a little
more restless and gave signs OF slight
pain. These, however, were superseded
an hour later by calm of manner and
talk that showed quite conclusively to
the attendants at her bedside that the last
moments were close by. At l0:30 a super
natural influence stole into the atmos-
phere of the death chamber. and the hus-
band and daughter spoke encouragingly
to the dying woman. The life, although
ebbing fast from its mortal boundaries,
still flashed back substantial evidence Of
the noble and determined characteristics
that made it famous to the world
At 1910 life still remained. A minute
later Mrs. Stone slowly Enclosed her eyes
and smiled one OF those smiles that have
fascinated thousands. At 1915 Mrs. Stone
again smiled, murmured an inarticulate
sound and died. Thus ended the career of
world famed Mrs. Lucy Stone.
