Local Relatives Received Message of Passing of Katherine Brice. Visiting France in Search of Health. Remains Will be Brought to This City for Interment. Local relatives received the sad news Thursday of Margaret Katherine Brice, youngest daughter of the late senator Calvin S. Brice, at Divone les Bains, in the southern part of France. The cable message did not give any particulars, but it is known that the deceased had been suffering for many months with an affection of the throat, and had gone abroad in the search of health. She left New York in May in company with her elder sister, Miss Helen Brice. John F. Brice, a younger brother and wife went abroad this summer, and W. K. Brice of New York, another brother sailed for France about ten days ago, which leads to the presumption that the surviving members of the immediate family were present at the time of her death. Margaret Katherine Brice was born in this city in July 1873 and was 38 years of age when death called. She resided in this city until 1882, when the late Senator moved his family to New York City. Since that time she has not been a frequent visitor to this city, the last visit being at the time of the funeral of her aunt, Mrs. Mary Irwin. Death has invaded the family frequently during the past few years. Senator Brice died in December 1898, and his wife followed in death exactly two years later. Captain Stewart M. Brice, the eldest son, died in June of last year. Besides the brothers John F. and W. K. Brice, and one sister, Miss Helen Brice, the following local residents survive to mourn her death: Mrs. I. S. Motter, Mrs. Anna E. Freeman, Mrs. O. B. Selfridge, aunts; George H. Meily, John K. Brice, and R. W. Meily, uncles; Benjamin Motter, Medera Freeman and Warren P. Meily, cousins. While no definite information is at hand it is probable that the remains will be brought to this city for interment in the family lot, facing the tomb of the late Senator and Mrs. Brice in Woodlawn cemetery."
