ed that none of her social obligations
should remain unpaid when she died,

after being informed by her physician
that she must submit to an operation

mirable hostess, allowing nothing to
disturb the pleasure Of her guests. II
she felt any anxiety she gave no evil

When the party was over and she

fects and picked out the clothing In
which she wished to be attired after
death. She then went to the hospital
and the operation which was perform
ed there caused her death.
