When a neighbor called, as she was in the habit of doing every morning, she found Mrs. Morton partly on her face in the bed indicating that she had tried to get up when death overtook her. Although suffering from heart disease for some time, death came as a severe blow to her husband. The funeral to the Hamilton cemetery was largely at- tended.
