  • Notes 
    • Mrs. J. (Christina) Ziegler Mrs. Ziegler had suffered for some time from sciatica, when, about two weeks ago she was attacked by pneumonia. For a few days previous to her death she was believed to be out of danger, and making favourable progress toward a complete recovery, though still being confined to bed. Mr. Ziegler left for his work, as usual, yesterday morning, happy in the expectation of having her up again shortly, but during the forenoon was called home on account of her death. The call which came so suddenly under these circumstances, was
      probably due to heart failure.
