Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Soller Die Within Ten Minutes of Each Other.

  About 9.30 o'clock last night Mr. Leonard Soller was stricken with 
apoplexy at his home, 151 Washington avenue.  Dr. C. C. Miller was summoned 
and responded as quickly as possible, but before he arrived Mr. Soller had 
passed away.  Overcome by the sudden illness of her husband and his death 
shortly afterward his wife died of nervous affection within ten minutes 
after her life companion had been called.  The vital spark had passed from 
both bodies before the physician arrive on the scene.
  Mr. Soller was born October 20, 1828, and was therefore aged 72 years, 1 
month and 10 days.  He had for many years been an employe of the 
Pennsylvania Railroad company.  Anna Mary Soller, his wife, was born in 
December, 1827.  They leave a family of children, several of whom are 
married.  One son, George, is employed by the company as a fireman.  The 
funeral arrangements will be announced later.
