FOresaw His Death.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat
publishes the following:
A strange case of premonition
of death was that of Harry Wolff,
of Mexico, who died last week of
pneumonia. Apparently he was
but slightly ill on Monday after
noon few weeks ago, when he
declared he would die during the
night. He repeated this assertion
at the supper table, again to his
partner in business, and when the
priest who was called in early in
the evening told Mr.. Wolff the
next day would be plenty of time
in which to attend to a certain
matter, Mr.. Wolff replied, YVES,
Father, but l won't be alive to-
morrow" and he died at an early
hour the next morning, of acute
pneumonia.
