Mrs. Emma Norris, widow of the late R. W. Norris, died at the Old Ladies’ Home, 
in Baltimore, Saturday, May 3, from the effects of a fall received some months 
ago.  Her age was about 80 years.

The deceased was a native of Hanover, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. 
David Baughman, and after her marriage in 1876, moved to Baltimore.  Her husband 
died about 25 years ago.

Mrs. Alice Stark and Miss Emma Baughman, of this place, nieces of the deceased, 
left Monday morning for Baltimore to attend the funeral, which took place today.  
Interment was made in the cemetery of the Old Ladies’ Home, near Baltimore.

A singular coincidence of Mrs. Norris’ death lies in the fact that her sister, 
Mrs. Joseph S. Gitt, late of New Oxford, and a brother, J. W. Baughman, of this 
place, also died from the effects of falls, at advanced years.
