The mail received this morning
brought news which caused grief to
many people in Hawaii. The report
of the sudden death OF Mrs. Mary
Kumanu Widemann in San Fran
cisco on Christmas day, was not
only terrible blow to her devoted
children in this city but was a cause
of sincere grief to the Hawaiian's
whose friend she always was.
The circumstances surrounding
the death of Mrs. Widemann are
particularly sad. She had been in
excellent health during her visit to
San Francisco where she lived
among her children and grandchild-
rem. The winter climate had agreed
with her and she looked forward to
Christmas which for many years
has been the day of special celebra-
tion in the Widemann family the
birthday of the late judge falling on
the oath of December.
Remiscenses of happy days gone
by overcame the deceased lady, who
remained in her room on Christmas
eve and gently asked her daughters
to excuse her from being present at
the Christmas tree around which
her grandchildren we're gathered,
Her daughters became alarmed at
her condition & sent for medical aid.
The deceased complained of slight
pain in her back only, but on Christ
mas day her condition became al
arming and pm. she expired quiet
ly and without pain to join her be-
loved husband.
The late Mrs. Widemann was one
of the most respected of Hawaiian
women, She was about 68 years of
age and a native of Kauai. Her
children are all prominent in Ha-
waii and their high characters and
universal standing in the communi-
ty are an envial monument to the
good woman whose noble career has
ended.
Services we're to be held at the
residence in San Francisco after the
embalming of the remains. The in
terment at the Catholic cemetery
was to be strictly private and when
the necessary arrangements have
been made the body will be brought
Honolulu.
During the last moments of the
decease there was present at her
bedside Mrs. @. o. Berger, Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Macfarlane, Mr.. and Mrs
Chris Conradt, Miss Anna Wide
mann, Herman Widemann and the
grandchildren now in San Francisco.
Mr.. Carl Widemann, Mrs. j. M,
Dowsett. Mrs. Henry Marfarlane
and Mrs. W. Law are the surviving
children in Honolulu and in their
sad affliction they have the sincere
sympathy OF the whole country.
