Margaret Mary Jordan Dead.

The news of the death of Margaret Mary,
daughter of Robert G. and Annie Jordan.
Of pneumonia, at Pennsylvania Hospital, on
Tuesday morning, was received here, her
home, with the deepest regret. The young
lady had just completed course OF instruc-
ton at that celebrated institution to be-
come trained nurse, when ten days ago
she contracted a cold which rapidly de-
veloped that fatal disease, with the above
result.
Expressions OF coincidence and sympathy
to the stricken parents and sisters are in
adequate and feeble in the face of calam-
ity so great as this bereavement, yet the
loss of one so widely esteemed for many
virtues of head and heart, at the opening of
a career of wide usefulness, is more than a
personal loss, and all who knew her extend
sincerest sympathy to the afflicted relatives
