Believed to have died in her sleep on Saturday, Mrs. James Luscombe, 78, well-known Preston resident, was found dead in her bed at her residence, Hamilton Street, yesterday afternoon, by local police and Robert Whittaker. Coroner Dr. C. G. Powers, of Preston, investigated and pronounced death due to natural causes. Robert Whittaker, who had befriended the late Mrs. Luscombe, who resided atone, was advised by neighbors, that they had not seen the deceased for some days. He contacted Constable W. Groh of the local police department and they jointly investigated. There was no indication in the home that the deceased had suddenly been taken. Interment was held at 7: 30 last evening, in the Preston cemetery.
