WILLIAMSBURG WAIFS.
SUDDEN DEATH.

  G. W. Ginter, of Springfield Mines, on Saturday last went to the 
house of his son, a short distance from his own residence, and drank 
two glasses of cider.  His son was in the act of handing him a third 
glass when he fell over apparently asleep.  His son thinking that he 
had only been overcome by the liquor did not pay much attention, and 
let him sleep until Sunday evening, when he became alarmed.  Dr. Brown 
was then called in and an endeavor was made to arouse him but without 
avail, and on Monday evening he died, without having recovered speech 
or sensibility.  He was about 55 years of age.
