Vincent

Tuesday morning, at the residence of her daughter Mrs. Henry Beverness 1339 Union street, occurred the death of Eliza Vincent, of bright's disease. She has been ill for some time with this trouble but was not confined to her bed until about three weeks ago. Since that time she rapidly failed until death came.
