it was Mrs. Barber, Mrs. McKinley's

great loss to the stricken wife. She
went from the bedside of the dead
president to the wife whose condi-

remove her from the sick room before

All day long she remained quietly
in her room, stricken to the soul, but

lovingly calls the late president

is bearing up at present, although it
