 Miss Mary Ford, a domestic employed by the late Mrs. Jane A. Dibble of Grand avenue for sixteen years, is critically i'll with pneumonia and does not know of the death of her friend. There was fear that the hustle caused by Mrs Dibble's funeral yesterday would disturb the patient and if she knew of the death it might prove fatal in her case. The physician said he would not be responsible for the conse- quences in that case. But the funeral services were quietly conducted, sing ing was dispensed with and Miss Ford, attended by nurse, slept through the hour of the services. Friends of Mrs. Dibble desired the services in Grace church, where she was long and promi- nently identified, and aided greatly in support, but the family knew if she could have expressed a wish, it would be to have the last solemn rites at her own home.
