THOMAS SOMERVilLE DEAD
A Prominent Public Spirited Citizen Of
Washington Passes Away.
Born in Scotland, but n Resident Of
This City Since 1S6O-
His Career.

The death of Thomas Somerv:lle occurred
last evening at I O'Clock at his resi-
dence, ~ 18th street northwest For some
time past Mr.. Somervile had been a very
sick man. but the progress of the ailment,
Br;ght's disease, was stayed somewhat by
his splendid constitution and resolute will
Several times it was thought he was dying,
but he rallied. Finally his strength and will
power became exhausted. If he had lived
until next month he would have been sixty
eight years of age.
Mr.. Somerville never had the appearance
of old age. He had rugged look, and, al
though mis- hair had whtened, he seemed
to have the vigor of a much younger man.

that the first century certainly did not
close until the end of the first 100 years.
Why then would not the nineteenth CEN

the twentieth century commence with the
close of The year 1909. instead of 1883 as
stated?
