MRS. Dwight B. ALLEN

Delaware county friends will regret to learn of the death of Mrs. D. B. Allen at Los Angeles, California, on last Wednesday, May 20, 1914. The remains are expected to arrive here the first of next week.

Miss Malinda Reed was born seventy-nine years ago and was united in marriage with Mr. D. B. Allen on March 5, 1856, at Chatham, N.Y. They lived on a farm and in Albany until the summer of 1869, when they moved to Illinois, settling at Atkinson, where they remained for six years and then came to Manchester in 1875, where they resided for many years. About four years ago they removed to Cedar Rapids, where they lived with their daughter, Mrs. A. S. Hart. Mr. Allen's death occurred at Cedar Rapids on December 26, 1910. Mrs. Allen remained at that place until the death of her daughter, Mrs. Hart, which occurred on September 21, 1913, when she removed to California, where she has since made her home with another daughter - Mrs. E. E. Giles, at whose home she passed away. Mrs. Allen is survived by her one daughter, Mrs. Giles.
