Mrs. Nelson Dingley Dies
At Sea Breeze, Florida

Lewiston, Jan. 11-Mrs. Nelson
Dingley, Jr., of Lewiston, died at
the age of IS, Tuesday morning at 5
o'clock at Sea Breeze, Florida, where
she was spending the winter with
her son. Harry NJ. Dingley.
She was the daughter of Henry and
Ruth Parker Mckinney. She was
educated in the Auburn school. and
later studied music in Boston, living
while there with her aunt, Mrs. Sar
all Hooper in Charleston. On June
II, 1857, in Auburn, she married Nell

as Governor and later as representa-
tive of the Second District in Con-
gress, where he served with distin
guished ability as chairman of the
ways and means committee, which
position he occupied at the time of
his death.
Returning to Lewiston, Mrs. Ding
ley and her son, Harry NJ. Dingley,
resided for number of years in the
Dingley home at the corner of Pine
and Horton streets-a homestead
still remaining in the family. Later,
her son purchased Sunny Crook farm
a beautiful estate on the outskirts Of
Auburn; and it was here that Mrs.
Dingley spent her summers when she
was not at Squirrel Island, her VIM
ters being passed with her daughter,
Mrs. James G. Hooe, at New Haven,
Conn.
Mrs. Dingley was especially fond of
spending the midsummer at her home
at Squirrel Island-which beautiful
summer resort Congressman Dingley
had been instrumental in developing
into one of the leading summer re-
sorts on the Maine coast. She was
a devout member of the Pine street
Congregational church.
Mrs. Dingley is survived by her
three sons-Hary NJ, of Auburn !;
Edward N, of Washington, d. c.,
and Albert G., of Denver, Colorado:
one daughter, Mrs. James c. Hooe
of New Haven, Conn; a half sister,
Mrs. Ruth D. Solomon of Portland.
One son, Arthur Fl. Dingley, died in
Denver. Col, many years ago:
The surviving grandchildren are
Nelson Hooe and Edith Dingley Hooe
of New Haven, Ct; Dorothy and
Mildred Dingley. children of Albert
G. Dingley of Denver, Colo; Capt.
Nelson Dingley, 3rd, Edward n.
Dingley, Jr, and Miss Madeline
Dingley, children of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
ward N. Dingley of South Braintree,
Mass; and Henry NJ. Dingley, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry M. Dingley of
Auburn.
The remains will be brought to
Auburn, where the services will be
held ...
The news of Mrs. Dingley's death
came as great surprise to her rel
atives and friends; for only this
week letter from Mrs Harry Ding
ley stated that she was in excellent
health and greatly. enjoying her
winter in Florida.

Beneath a large sheet Of lead was
