OBITUARY. 



Mrs. John T. Allan. 



A wide circle of friends will be 

 grieved to hear of the death September 

 12 of Mrs. John T. Allan, wife of the 

 well-known gardener at the John R. 

 Drexel place in Newport, R. I. She 

 had been in poor health for some time, 

 but it was not until a few days before 

 hei' death that her serious condition 

 was made known. She was a woman 

 of .sterling qualities, always cheerful 

 and well-liked by everyone with whom 

 she became acquainted. She leaves one 

 son, John T. Allan, Jr., who is attend- 

 ing high school. In respect to her mem- 

 ory the Horticultural Society sent a 

 beautiful wreath to the funeral which 

 was hold September 14 and was large- 

 ly attended by members of the Horti- 

 cultural Society, and the gardening 

 craft. The Society also at its meeting, 

 September 13, appointed a committee 

 consisting of the president, the secre- 

 tary and the treasurer to draft resolu- 

 tions of sympathy to Mr. Allen for his 

 irreparable loss.
