Following Rash Tp Stairway to Pre pare for Fancy Ball Death Comes Tragically Sudden. Tragically sudden was the death of Miss Lillian Dosch, the eldest daughter of Colonel and Mrs. Henry E. Dosch. who died from heart disease while in the act of preparing to attend the fancy dress ball given by members of the Corbett family on New Year's eve. Miss Dosch had Just left the dinner table to go upstairs to dress. The ex eratlon of mounting the stairs, coupled in all probability, with the excitement of the prospect of the dance, resulted In the over-taxation of an already weak heart, with the result that she fell in a dead faint. In spite of all that human aid could do. death came with the passing of a few minutes, for Miss Dosch never re gained consciousness. Owing to the distance of the family residence, which is in Hillsdale, it was 25 minutes before medical assistance could arrive, and by that time the physician was powerless to aid. For two months Miss Dosch had withdrawn from any but the simplest of social functions on the advice of her physician with the object of recover ing from the heart trouble with which she was afflicted, just about the time of the wedding of her younger sister, Miss Marguerite, to Benage S. Josselyn, Jr. In addition to Mrs. Josselyn there is another sister. Miss Camille Dosch, and three brothers, ArncK a writer in New York, who was acquainted with the news by telegraph, and Ernest and Roswell, the two last named being both of Portland. Simple services, to which friends are Invited, will be held this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the Crematorium, with Dr. John H. Boyd, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, as the officiating minister. LETTER PUZZLES CARRIERS "New Tear" Not Found In Postal Guide and Epistle Is Returned.
