 Miss Helen Dockery, one of Derby's brightest school girls, died suddenly qt the home of her mother, Mrs. H. c.
 sborn, on Bank street, Saturday
 5ening at 1O:3O o'clock, The cause
 i death was overstudy, which fought on heart trouble. Miss Dock
 ey was only sixteen years on her last birthday, last March, and for her age -aGle was one of the brightest and most tromising scholars in Derby. She was q member of the senior class of St. Marys high school, where she was a general favorite Miss Cookery was also very fine musician and has com posed several beautiful pieces which were to be published in the near fu- ture. During the term of 1905-1906 she attended the Yale Conservatory of Music, being the youngest pupil that ever entered this institution. The past year she had to give up her musical education because it interfered too much with her school work Her plans were to attend the conservatorya upon her graduation from St. Mary's high school next June.
 Miss Cookery is a member of one of Derbys most prominent families. Her death came as a great shock to the Derby people. She was born in Shelton and attended the Shelton schools in her infancy. Five years ago she removed to East Derby with her mother who then became the wife of H. c, Osborn. Besides her mother, she is survived by her uncle, Edward Dockery the shelton newsletter, and many relatives in Ansonia and Bridge port Undertaken j. P.
