The Wife of Chauncey NJ. Depow Passes
Away.
New YORK, May S.-Mrs. Eliza Hege-
man Depew, wife of Chauncoy NJ. De-
pew died ut her residence in this city
at 1890 yesterday afternoon.
Although Mrs. Depew was known to
be seriously i'll, this sudden termina'
ton of her illness was not expected by
her family and those who were mos'
intimately connected with her. Mrs
Depew, whose maiden name was Miss
Eliza Hegeman, was married to Mr..
Depew November 4, 1871. They have
had one child, Chauncey NJ. Depcw, Jr.,
who is now IA years old.
In spite of the opportunities that her
fortune gave her, Mrs. Depew cared lit
tie for society and devoted her time
mainly to charitable and church work.
She has for years been the president OF
the Woman's Association of llahnemann
hospital, and was also connected with
a score or more of different church as.
sociations.
During the past two years Mrs. Depew
has been an invalid. During the fes-
tivities ut Fortress Monroe attendant
upon the visit of the foreign war ships,
Mrs. Depew made n trip to the place in
the hope of improving her health. This
expectation, was not realized, however.
She became much worse and was
brought home feebler than when she
