by Heart Disease-The Death
Record.

Intelligence was received this morning by
the family of Gen. |. X. Sherwood that Mrs
SherwOOd's mother Mrs Judge Brownlee, had

family. Though Mrs. BrOWnlee was aged rs
years she had been unusually vigorous and it

hOning county. Since the death of
Judge BrOWnlee, Mrs. Brownlee has been de-
voting her time to her two children, Mr.. A. W.
Brownlee, of Norwalk, and Mrs. Sherwood of
this city. She spent much Of her time in Can
ton and made scores of warm friends. She had
been in Canton for some months the guest OF
Mrs. Sherwood until about three weeks ago
when she went to NOrwalk to visit her son.
She was as well as usual when she left here
and Mrs. Sherwood little knew that when she
parted from her il would be the last time she
would see her in life.
Mrs. Brownlee retired as usual at her sons
residence Wednesday evening but during the
night was attacked with heart trouble. All
that could be done for her was done, but her
heart had failed to perform its functions and at
one o'clock death came and ended a sweet and
peaceful life,
The funeral will be held in the old home
at Poland ON Saturday at o'clock. Mrs.
Sherwood will meet the remains at Youngs-
town. The sorrowing relations have the deep
