EstimabIe Canaan Lady Passes Away
 After Long Illness.

NalCi
 Mrs. Oswald T. Vosburgh died Mon- day at a. Ill. after lingering illness dating back about three years-anaemic trouble that baf1ed the skill of the best physicians and specialists. Last spring her condition had become so serious that it was deemed advisable to take her to the House of Mercy at Pittsfield for treatment, but the doctors there held out no hope of her recovery, and after about week there she was sent home, as the hospital physicians plainly said, to die within week. That was in May of the present year. On returning to her home she seemed to gradually grow weaker for few days, but suddenly began to gain strength and color, and under the ministrations of Dr. Camp regained her old.time vigor and seemed better than for some years before. But the insidious disease, termed pernicious anaemia, was doing its work, and about three weeks ago she was obliged to take to her bed, from which she never arose, rapidly failing and fading away, until the end.
 Mrs. May Pearl Vosburgh was born in Ghent, N. Y., January II, 1875, the daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Arthur Winn. She was married to Oswald T. Vosburgh in St Marks church in Philmont, N. Y, Dec. 29, 1897, where her husband was at tEat time employed in the gro- cery business. .......'.......
 In February, 1898, the young couple moved to Canaan, where MT. Vosburgh had engaged as grocery clerk with the firm of Jackson 6 Eggleston, with whom he remained until the firm change to Bullock 6 Felten, and con- tinued with the latter for six months when he opened his present grocery store,
 The Vosburghs' first residence in Ca naan was in the rooms over the Farnum drug store, later in the Scott house on West Main street, where they lived un- til about six months later, when they moved to New Rochelle, N. r., and re- mained about six months. They moved into the present residence, in the Mrs. Clemans block in 1910.
