The snow labored from about

Washington dug up the piling

city walked, rode in automobiles
or travelled in street cars as usual.

COMA

Sleeping sickness, which defied
the efforts Of. skilled physicians
for two months, and which kept
its victim in state Of complete
coma for ten days, caused the
death, at Garfield Hospital today,
of Miss Jane E. Williams, 36,
granddaughter Of Wash B. vii
liams, noted local financier.
Became III In November
The illness first manifested itself
early in November. Although she
had been suffering from no other
ailment Miss Williams at that time
would fall into semiconsciousness
without warning. She would re
cover quickly, however, and she did
not think the malady was serious.
The attacks of sleepiness which
she could not fight off became more
frquent, however, and physicians
were called in. Despite their ef-
forts, the malady gripped its victim
with greater Virulence and, two
weeks ago, she was removed to the
hOSpAtdI. y
Ten days ago, she fell into state
of coma, and every effort to arouse
her, and to aid her in taking prop
er nourishment. failed. The long
continued sleep brought death early
today.
Was Educated Here
Miss Williams had been a resi-
dent of Washington for many years
and was educated in private schools
in this city,
