When death occurred there were at the bedside the two daughters of the deceased, Mrs. Rhoda Fletcher and Mrs. F. L. Harvey, and Paul Holman of the geological survey. Mrs. Holman was seventy-three years of age and was well known in this city, Judge Holman being in Congress over thirty years. The remains will be taken to Aurora, Ind., for interment.
