made his home since the death of his wife. 
     Mr. Folckemer had heen yesterday in his normal slate of health. He had

been about town and seemed to he in his accustomed health and spirits,  
Nothing unusual was observed by Mrs. Nixon, up to the time e retired last 
night.

due lo old age was given as the cause of death.
