evening while on her way to the regular
meeting Of the Woman's Relief corps
in the opera house block on Main street
She had reached the top of the first
flight Of stairs leading TO the hall when
she became out of breath and sat down
on the steps. Mrs. May Bundy and Mrs,
Ada Holt, also on their way to the meet
ings, came upon Mrs. Fallon and quickly
realizing the seriousness of her condi-
ton, tried to get into tenement. They
were unable to find any open and finally
carried her to the tailoring shop OF A. j.
Geavreau where DR.. j. r. Grimes was
summoned. Although partially con-
scious, the woman failed to respond to
medical treatment and died almost as
soon as the physician reached her side.
The body was taken to her home. AL
though the deceased had been in i'll
health during the past winter she had
steadily improved and yesterday re-
turned from Bristol, where she passed
Sunday and the holiday. She was born
in Bristol, Dec. 20, 1860, but had resided
in this city for the past twenty years.
She was vice president OF the relief corps,
serving her second term and also be-
longed to the Rebekahs and the New
England Order of Protection. She was
also active in the spiritualist denomina-
ton OF the state. There are no children.
The fire department was called at s
o'clock last evening to the farm OF
James Scales on town hill, where blaz
ing leaves on the top of a barn had CON-
menced to burn the structure. A tele-
phone call was first received and then
an alarm was pulled in from Box 80. A
garden hose, aided by chemicals, succeed
ed in putting out the blaze, with car
rage as the only loss.
