Mrs. George Storm

Our citizens were somewhat shocked last Monday when the news spread that Mrs. George Storm was near death’s door, the result of a paralytic stroke. She had been on the farm keeping house for her son, Fred, who had gone to the World’s Fair with his family, returning home Monday. Mrs. Storm complained of her arms being cold as soon as she got in the house and sat in a chair near a warm stove, rubbing her arm when she fell to the floor unconscious and has been ever since. She has lost her power of speech and all medical aid up to this writing has been of no avail. Her many friends hope to see her yet revive.

Later story-
Mrs. George Storm died at her home in Preston on Monday from paralysis. She was stricken down several days before and never recovered consciousness again. She was a lady very highly esteemed and aged about 55 years.
