Death OF MRS. \. B.iALLEN
Occurs at hsr Home Sunday Morn.
Ing, January rs. Fatal Ter.
minatloa Of Short illness.

The large circle of friends of Mrs.
H. B. Allen we're shocked to hear
of her death, which occurred Sun day
morning shortly after. midnight. Few
of even her most intimate friends
were aware of the serious condition
of the patient, and many did not
know o. her illness in any way. Mrs.
Allen had been called to Ohio.by the
death Of her father, Dec. q, and on
her return had only been at home
four days when she was taken i'll
with an acute kidney trouble which
developed into uraemic poisoning
from the effects of which she was
unable TO rally. Her sickness was
scarcely more than week in dura-
tion and the sudden change from ap-
parently vigorous health to fatal
sickness is yet difficult to realize.
On her return from the east she
appeared to be In her usual health
and GOOD. spirits and her family were
In no way alarmed as to her condi-
tion until the last--two. or three days
when the rapio progress OF the dis
ease became manifest.
Mrs. Allen,. formerly Emma Wea-
yer, was born in Belleville, Mitflin
county, Penn, Feb. : -l849, and in
early childhood moved to Ohio. She
was married to II. b. Allen, Dec. 2l,
1871, coming to jamestown April 13,
1883, since which, time he has resided
in the city, period of quarter of
century. Mrs. Allen was a devoted
member of the Presbyterian church,
and active in the work OF that
church and its auxiliary societies.
She is survived by her huband and
two children Paul, and Helen. Her
love of home and the life of the fam
lily circle was her greatest enjoyment;
she was kind neighbor and good
friend and the sympathy OF all goes
out to the bereaved husband and
children in the loss of one so sudden
ly taken from the activities OF life,
and the affections of the family cir
Gle.
The funeral was held Monday after
noon from the family residence on
3rd ave., Rev. Simon of the Presby-
terian church, officiating, assisted
by Rev. Phillips. The rooms were
crowded with friends, who came to
pay their last respecrs. Tie casket
was covered with beautiful flowers
sent by those to whom the realiza-
tion of the death of the lost one was
a difficult and saddening task.
The pail bearers were: Ben Or
lady, II. T. Graves, John Latta, W.
G. Mueller, S. F. Corwin, and 5. E.
Ellsworth. Interment was in the
Highland Home cemetery.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. A. Kirk of st.
Paul, the latter sister of Mr.. Fl.
B. Allen, we're arrivals today to at
tend the funeral.

they were going to take him away

up his varied business affairs.
