                            Sudden Death of a Lady

Yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock a little child of Mrs. Richard H. Denson 
came out of the house, corner of Brewer and Charlotte Streets, and informed some 
of the neighbors that the baby was crying and her mother was lying on the floor 
asleep. A lady in the neighborhood went upstairs into Mrs. Denson's room and 
found her lying on the floor, as the child said, but sleeping the sleep that 
knows no waking. Mr. Denson left home in the morning and while his wife had been 
complaining for some time past, he had no idea that her condition was serious, 
and the announcement of her death was a terrible shock to him. Mrs. Denson was 
the daughter of Mr. William Stevens and a lady highly esteemed in the city.
The funeral will take place on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock from the Freemason 
Street Baptist Church.
