Mrs. Thomas A. McShane died in New York City this morning. She had reached New York last Tuesday with her daughter, Miss Margaret McShane, whose illness in Switzerland had called her son, Thomas J. McShane, to Switzerland in August. Miss McShane had made a fine recovery and it was to allow her to rest that the mother stayed over, intending to start for home the first of the week.
