  • Notes 
    • MRS. HENRY WITTICH

      Scare had the sound of the funeral bell died out, when it was reported that the wife of Mr. Henry Wittich, had breathed her last. As she had for some time been at death's door, the news came not unexpectantly. Over a month ago deceased had the misfortune to choke on a piece of meat which became lodged in her wind-pipe, threatening immediate suffocation. Dr. Ullyot was called in and managed to remove the obstacle to an extent to make breathing easier. However, inflammation set in, and in spite of all that medical aid could offer, she gradually sank until death relieved her intense suffering, last Sunday. Deceased was 38 years of age, and leaves a sorrowing husband and four daughters, aged from 2 to 14 years. Funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, and was attended by a large concourse of friends and acquaintances. Mr. Wittich has the sympathy of a large number of friends in his sad bereavement.
