Monday she arose to attend to one of the younger boys and while trying to light the lamp at the head of the stairway, in some unknown way, misstepped and fell to the bottom of the stairs where she was found by the other members of the family who heard the noise of the fall. Medical aid was summoned immediately and everything was done that human hands could do, but to no avail, she passed away on Tuesday A.M.
