Death of Mrs. Ethel May Weed

    Mrs. Ethel May Weed age 25
who underwent an operation at the
City Hospital three weeks ago, died
at that institution yesterday.  The
deceased had been in poor health
since the fall of 1910 when she fell
on the walk at the corner of War-
ren Avenue and Aspen Street. Her
death was not directly attributable
to the fall, in which she sustained a
fractured wrist in addition to a se-
vere shaking up.

    Mrs. Weed brought suit against
the city and required damages in the
extent of $3,500.  The Appellate Di-
vision sustained the verdict and at a
meeting of the Common Council last
month of the payment of the judgment
was ordered.  

    She is survived by her husband, 
William H. Weed, an employee of the 
Lehigh Valley Railroad, her parents,
Mr. & Mrs. Charles Stewart, and
six children, Charles, Dorothy, Har-
ry, Ethel, Beatrice and Ella.  The
oldest of these is seven years old
while the youngest is an infant.  The
family have the sincere sympathy of
the community in their bereavement.

    Funeral services will be held at
the home of her mother, Mrs. Susan 
W. Stewart, No. 134 Hardenburg  
Avenue Thursday afternoon at 2
o'clock.  Burial will be made in 
Soule Cemetery.
