Her Death was Sudden.

Mrs. Abbie DWYER, wife of Anthony DWYER, died from an affectation of the heart very suddenly Saturday night. She retired because of illness, but neither she nor those about here thought her condition really serious. When, during the night, those watching with her attempted to arouse her they found that she was dead. She had passed away peacefully and with so slight a struggle that members of the family in the same room did not know just when death came. Mrs. DWYER had resided for thirty years or more on a farm in Fairfield township two miles northwest of this city. Her age was about sixty-seven years. Those who knew her held her in high esteem and pronounced her an excellent neighbor and a thoughtful friend. Her husband survives her. Funeral services were held at St. Mary's church, this city, yesterday, conducted by Rev. A. M. Nodler.
