Wife and Husband Died But a Few Days Apart

Death of Mrs. Mary E. DuBois Occurs This Morning- Double Funeral

Mrs. Mary E. DuBois of 73 West Algoma street died this morning at two
o'clock, after an illness with pneumonia.  Her husband, the late John B.
DuBois, veteran of the Civil war, died Tuesday of this week, and the two
who journeyed through life together will go the same grave.  The death of
Mrs. DuBois is particularly sad, as she only survived her husband two days.
She was seventy-three years of age, and he was seventy-two.  Arrangements
have been made for a double funeral which will occur Sunday afternoon at
two o'clock from the Algoma M.E. church.  The services will be in charge of
the Phil H. Sheridan past, G.A.R., of this city, of which organization Mr.
Du Bois is a member.  Mrs. Du Bois was born in Pennsylvania.  Five
children, all of this city, survive, as follows: Gilbert A. DuBois, Charles
H. DuBois, Eugene A. DuBois, Hamilton W. DuBois and Mrs. Hattie Abrams.
Two brothers and two sisters also survive.

The funeral of the late Mrs. McFetridge of 157 Irving street, will be held
from the residence Saturday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. G. D. Lindsay of
the First Presbyterian church officiating.  The pall bearers will be
Captain J.N. Ruby, D.W. Wood, P. Simmons, J.B. Everett.
