Norfolk Landmark May 17, 1896
FATAL USE OF MORPHINE.
Grace Lee, a white woman, the proprietress of a house of ill-fame at No. 148 Wolfe 
street, who took a large quantity of morphine with suicidal intent Friday night, 
died at her home about 8:30 o'clock last night. She did not regain consciousness 
after swallowing the fatal dose, although several doctors put forth every effort 
to save the unfortunate woman's life. The remains were conveyed to an undertaker's 
establishment to be prepared for burial.
