 Not in many years has Greeneville been so shocked as when it was an- nounced Wednesday morning that Mrs. the year an attack of the grip came on, from which she did not entirely re- cover, although she was able to at- tend to her, usual household cares. Some time ago other complications be- gan to appear, from which a weakness of the heart resulted. For several days she seemed to improve, but at an early hour Wednesday morning, without a moments warning. she slipped away into a rest which she had richly earned
 Mrs McWilliams was widely known and loved for her unselfishness, never ble to be helpful to others. She was genial in her ways; cheerful in dispo- sition, kindly disposed toward every body, and few indeed were those who had not repeatedly felt the sympathy of her great heart. In her death her children have lost a priceless mother her husband a faithful and affectionate wife, and the neighborhood a never failing friend.
 Her maiden name was Elizabeth A. Mcclure, and she was united in mar riage to John McWilIiams at Noank, Oct. 21, 1885, by Rev. H. A. Wilcox She united with the Greeneville Con- gregational church in 1890. Besides her husband, she leaves three chill dren: Arthur P. McWilliams of New York, Mrs. c.

TROLLEY PASSENGERS PAY
 MORE THAN REQUIRED
Many Do Not Under Value of Zone
 Tickets.

Unfamilarity with the new zone fare system on the Shore Line Elec- tric Railway system is responsible for some passengers paying more than necessary to get to their destinations. Failure to purchase a through ticket is the fault in the majority of cases.
 For instance, a passenger boards a car at Ocean Beach bound for Nor wich. He pays a fare of five cents to get to the parade in New London and then pays A cents to come to Norwich, a total of % cents. Had he told the conductor on the car from the beach that he was going through to Norwich the conductor would have given him a through zone ticket for 2S cents, a saving of one cent. The amount saved by buying a through ticket increases according to the dis tance the passenger is to buy. A saw ing of three or four cents trop amounts in time to tidy sum.
 Many people do not know what the zone tickets mean. Each zone ticket contains the name of every zone sta tion and its number. The way to ar rive at the fare from one point to another is by substracting the lower zone number from the other, the diff ference being the fare.
