nearby neighbors and was sitting on
the porch when she suddenly gasped
and seemed to be choking. A glass
Of water was %hurriedly brought, but
when 1t arrived she was unable to
drink 1t and she died within a few
minutes.
A physician was at once called and
he. responded promptly, but the lit
tie girl was beyond medical aid, and
her sudden and untimely taking-off
was by him attributed to heart dis
ease.
