?b?Passed Peacefully Away

Mrs. Thomas Hodgins?/b? passed peacefully away about 1 o'clock on Tueesday afternoon, About two weeks ago she had a stroke of paralysis which caused unconsciousness most of the time since. All that medical skill and careful nursing could do was to no avail. On Saturday, however, she improved wonderfully and had regained consciousness, but after a second stroke on Monday she became weaker, lapsing into unconsciousness and slept away, apparently without pain or ache, until until her spirit took its flight.
