medical aid, being ailing with an ab-
scess in her side. Saturday an opera
tion was performed with such success

hope for her ultimate recovery, but
she was soon taken with sinking
spell resulting in her death as above
recorded. Miss Schultz enjoyed the
love and esteem of large circle of
friends who are grieved to hear Of her
untimely death. Her age was 81 years.
