We'll Known People Who Have Been
 Called Away.

Mrs A. s. Chase died last night al her home. Rose Hill, Prospect street, after short illness with pneu. monia. Only the family and imme. diate relatives were aware that Mra Chase was seriously i'll, consequently the announcement of her death was great shock to the community in which she had spent so many years and where she had endeared herself to all who had come in contact with her, especially those who stood in need of helping hand, for Mrs Chase was generous giver and never lost an opportunity to help those whom she knew to be in need of the necessaries of life, and never. felt above visiting them in their homes and giving them words of en- couragement as well as something more substantial. She was daugh. ter of Dr Starkweather of Chester field. Mass, and was born there April s. 1880. In 1850 she came to Wa terbury as teacher of music in the high school. Four years later she married the late A. s. Chase. then and up to the time of his death ten [, years ago, one of the most prominent manufacturers in the Naugatuck val- ley. She is survived by three sons and three daughters. Henry s. Chase. Irving H. Chase. senator-elect. Fred erick s. Chase. Miss Helen E. Chase. Mrs A. R. Kimball and Mrs David c. Streeter. Her eldest sister. Mrs Baldwin. and her brother. Henry c. Starkweather. were visiting here when Mrs Chase passed away. Mrs Chase was identified with almost every charitable work that took place in Waterbury since she came here. She took deep interest in church work and did much to make the Wa terbury Industrial school what it is at the present time. She did much for the Waterbury hospital and other institutions and but recently donated to the city the tract of land on River side street known as Chase park. She also taught the family. especially her daughters, to be mindful of the poor, and as a result one of them, Miss Helen Chase. Is even better known in the homes of people who need little assistance from time to time than her mother ever was, so that in addition to being constantly on errands of mercy while in the flesh she died with the assurance that the good work in which she was en. gagged would be taken up where she left 1t off.
