MRS. H. H. GREGG PASSES
AWAY FRIDAY MORNING

Mrs. H. H. Gregg, whose recovery
was reported as being doubtful last
week, passed away at $3.50 Friday
morning at the home of her daughter
Mrs. J. b. Mailing, after six or
seven weeks illness, during which
she time she suffered intensely, from
complications no doubt the result of
an attack of influenza. She had had
an attack of tonsilitis, two weeks pre-
vious to taking down with her final
illness, and had rallied and was able
to be about the house for a short
period. She then took to her bed
with an acute attack of sciatic rheu-
matism, and it was necessary for
the attending physician to administer
hypodermic treatments in order that
she might get temporary relief from
her agony. While these were the i'm
mediate ailments large goiter is be-
lieved to have been responsible for
the many complications which set in,
and which was possibly the ultimate
cause Of her death.
Altho an intense sufferer, Mrs.
Gregg bore it with remarkable pa
thence and fortitude, and seemed to
worry more for those who were
about her endeavoring to make her
comfortable than she did for herself.
Everything possible by way of
medical attention and nursing was
done for her in an effort to restore
her, but during the last two weeks of
her illness DR.. Foster gave the family
no hopes of her recovery, saying If
she did recover it would be q miracle.
A week or ten days previous to to
her death, DR.. Foster called in con-
suitation DR.. Hall, an eminent spec
ialist Of Denver, who concurred in
Dr. Fosters diagnosis, and said 1t
was only question Of time and the
only thing to be done was to keep
hsr as comfortable as possible.
Aesdames Mailing and Moberly
were constantly in attendance ON her
wants and nurses and neighbors did
everything possible for her.
Wednesday. = week prior to her
death she seemed to suffer q para.
iytic stroke which took away her
power of articulation, and left her
unconscious except at slight inter-
va. when she rallied and pscognizsd
