Mrs. Mary Mazeque, colored aged 80 years,
died at Little Rock, Arkansas, on Tuesday.
She was probably the largest woman in the
South, and weighed $50 pounds. As child
she was not unusually large, and it was only
within the last two years that the abnormal
accumulation of far began. For the last six
months she was unable to move, and could
only sit on the floor. Her death was the
direct result of the excessive accumulation of
adipose tissue.
