Sudden Death of Mrs. Sophia w.
Perkins

The people of Skowhegan were
shocked Saturday night to learn OF
the sudden death Of Mrs. Sophia w.
Perkins, her body having been found
at the foot of the stairs in her home
by her son Byron Perkins, who lived
with her. So far as is known Mrs.
Perkins had been In her usual health
and had attended to her household du-
ties during the day. Her son upon
entering the house supposed that sne
had gone out for few minutes and
after waiting for time decided TO
prepare supper. Upon gong to the
cellar he found the lifeless body of
his mother lying on the cellar bottom.
1t is supposed that her death was due
to a sudden attack Of heart failure
rather. than fall.
Mrs. Perkins was rs years old and
was born in Madison. Her parents
were Daniel E. and Sophia (Whittier)
Reed For long time the family home
was short distance from town on
the Athens Road, her husband, the
late AK Perkins having owned
large farm there. Subsequently she
and her family moved to II Maple
street where her death occurred. She
was highly esteemed in the commu-
nifty where she had so long resided.
Her church affiliations were with
Bethany Baptist society and she was
an honorary member Of the Ella F.
