OBITUARY.,

MRS. EDWARD L. DRUMMEY.
friends were shocked by the news
Friday of the sudden death of Mary
A., wife of Edward L. Drummey of
Ellsworth, which occurred at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. E. w.
Ellsworth, in Dorchester, Mass. Mrs.
Drummey had been with her daugh-
ters in Dorchester about five weeks,
and in her usual health until about
two weeks ago. Since then she had
had the attendance of a physician,
but was able to be up and about the
house, and death came with unex-
pected suddenness, of heart failure
Mrs. Drummey, whose maiden
name was Mary A. Corners, was
born in Ireland. but came to this
country as a young girl. AS a young
woman, she came to Ellsworth to
work in the family of the late
Senator Hale, and here was married
to Mr.. Drummey.
She was a woman of large
hearted, charitable, nature, a self
sacrificing neighbor and friend, a de-
voted mother and home-maker. She
will be greatly missed, not only in
the home, but in the community.
She leaves, besides her husband,
one son, Chandler, and three daugh-
terS, Mrs. Ellsworth and Miss Anna
Drummey of Dorchester, and Miss
Clara of Ellsworth; also one brother
and five sisters, most of them living
in Boston and vicinity, and a large
number of nieces and nephews.
The funeral was held in Dorchester
Monday, and interment was there.
The family, thus suddenly be-
reaved, has the sincere sympathy of
many friends.
