George Pierce, still man, was severely burned. Obituary Residents of South Elwood Street, were made sad last Sunday morning by learning of the sudden death of Mrs. Mary A. Forquer, wife of A. L.

Forquer, employed in the sales department of the Ohio Cities Gas Company. Mrs. Forquer usually in excellent health had been taken ill just one week previous, but on Saturday afternoon and evening she seemed to be getting better and her relatives and friends thought she was fast on the way to full recovery, but about three a. Sunday, she took a sinking spell and died at 4:30. Besides her husband, she leaves two children, Mary Catherine, four, and Nora Irene, two, also two sisters, Miss Catherine Hassett and Miss Margaret Hassett of Warren, and two brothrs, P.

L. Hassett of Detroit, and John H. Hassett, who is now in France in the service of Uncle Sam. To know Mrs. Forquer was to love her; she was a devoted wife, a loving mother, a faithful friend, and a good neighbor.

Mrs. Forquer had led a very useful life. While yet in her teens, she became a graduate nurse. Soon after graduation, she was elected superintendent of the General Hospital, at Warren, and held that position up until the time of her marriage to Mr. Forquer.

By her kindly disposition and faithful attendance she endeared herself to every patient that was taken to that hospital. She leaves in addition to her family and relatives a host of friends in Pennsylvania and Oklahoma, and her sudden death has cast a gloom over all. Another sad incident was that her sister Catherine arrived from Pennsylvania three hours after Mrs. Forquer's death, to pay her a visit. The sympathy of the entire community, as also of all friends and acquaintances, is extended Mr.
