DEATH OF MRS. A, E, NJ. HOWE.

The friends of Mrs, A. e. M. Howe
were greatly shocked yesterday morn
ing at the announcement of her sudden
death from heart failure, at the home
of her brother, l Congress street. She
had been in usual health to the last,
only complaining of difficulty in
breathing at times during the
night, but this was not consider
ed serious. Yesterday morning
about o'clock, she had breathed her
last
Mrs Howe was the second child of
thelate Rev. Enos Marshall of Garrison,
New York, and was the widow of
Elon c. Howe, who died in California
in 1S49. She leaves a brother, Rev. DR..
b. d. Marshall, of this city, with whom
she had made her home for the last
II years.
Her life has been one of toll and low
ing ministry in the family, and in all
Christian and church work in Clarkson
and Brookport, N. Y, before coming to
Worcester. Since her residence in
Worcester in the Pleasant Street
Baptist church, in all the work of the
church. and especially in it's missionary
operations, she was devoutly active.
She will be missed and mourned by a
large circle of friends
The remains will be taken to Buffalo,

but al offer by one of the most prom
inent capitalists in New York is being
considered. and is very likely to be ac-
cepted. If not plenty of local capital
to float tho enterprise is assured. The
brick makers as a rule are enthusiastic
in their support of the combination
