The Sudden Demise of Jttrsi Mary Bunger, On Thursday of last week Mary Ann Bunger arrived from Springfield, Mo., to attend thir funeral of her mother, Mrs; Francis Mc Kinley. She was apparently in good health, and attended the ' U. P. Church in this city Sunday- morning; Monday morning she arose as usual and ate breakfast with the family of James T. Mc Kinley. one mile North of- town, where she was staying. Nothing appeared wrong with her until about 9o' clock When without a moment's warning she fell and expired, not .speaking a word. Those about the house were shocked beyond measure at the- sudden death, so wholly unexpected, and could scarcely realize the facts. Mrs. Bunger has gone out in the yard, and, upon returning, fell and struck her head upon a stone; It
seems that she was subject to faint-
ing spells, and, it is thought that if some one had been near to assist her she might have lived.' Tfee blow on thenhead may have assisted the actual cause of her death. - Deaceased was about 50 years of age and was the wife of Michael Bunger who was notified of the sad event by telegraph, andhe arrived here Tuesday evening, with his daughter, to attend the funeral which occured Wednesday. Dr. Jordan returned, .from Colorado,. Tuesday. Charley Mobley was in Louisville this week, buyiug new goods. About Sept. 1st, Samuel Orchard will go to Attica where he. has leased a hotel. Mrs Louis Boll m am has returned from Pennsylvania, and will remain until jher deceased husband's estate is settled. . .
