Last Thursday saw the death
of Mrs. Daniel Broughton at the Emergency Hospital, after an illness
of several days' duration from influenza-pneumonia, in her 25th
year.
She and her husband and
several children had been taken to the hospital for care a day or
two before, but Mrs. Broughton, whose constitution was impaired by a
serious illness earlier in the year, became a victim of the disease.
The husband still lies very
ill at the hospital, while all the children but one have been
discharged as better.
Mrs. Broughton is a sister
of the late Eric Carter, who died from the same disease a fortnight
before at the hospital.
Four young children and Mr.
Broughton survive.
Mrs. Broughton's mother,
Mrs. Carter, is a convalescent after a severe attack of influenza.
