Kin Of Woman Secretly
Buried Says Hospital
Had Address.
MRS. MAYOW SWEARS TO
CHARGE In AFFIDAVIT
4 am Going to Investigate This
Matter to the Very Bot
tOm," She Declares.

An affidavit absolutely refut-
ing the statement OF the officials
at the Overlook Asylum for the
Insane that they did not have the
correct address of any of the
relatives of Mrs. Mary Anne
Bauer, who died there August 3
last. was given to the Newark
EVENING STAR today by Mrs.
Charles w. Mayow, eldest daugh-
ter of the dead woman who was
buried in the potter's field with
out her relatives being notified.
The affidavit reproduced herewith
tells the whole story. Mrs. Mayow,
whose husband has been a letter-car-
rier for nineteen years, all of which
time he has been attached to the New
ark and Irvington offices. swears that
the hospital officials have had her
present address for fourteen years.
1T is absurd said Mrs. Mayow to-
day, ito think that a letter addressed
either to myself or my husband would
not reach us at 26 Washington street,
Irvington, our home for the last four
teer years. 1t is preposterous, and do
rot hesitate to say that it is not true,
If notice of my mothers death had
been sent out by the hospital officials,
II do not care whether it was addressed
to rs Washington avenue, Newark, OF
not, it would have reached US.
Mr.. Mayow has been in the post
office department for fourteen years
and is known to every official and car
rier connected with it. Even If the hos
pital officials did have Newark instead
of Irvington as our home address the
notice Of my mothers death should
have reached me if mailed at all.
why, many times I have received
letters addressed to Newark at my Irv-
ington home. I have even received let
ters there that were addressed &c Wash
ington avenue, New York. When un-
claimed at that number they would be
sent to Newark and would reach me,
a little late hut thew got "a our house
just the same.
