Mrs Eliza Eyre, wife of Pennell Eyre, of 1111 Spruce Str., died last evening after a short illness. Yesterday morning Mrs Eyre was in the best of health apparently, and remarked to the
family that she felt exceedingly well. Shortly before noon she was seized with a pain about the heart and grew weaker until she passed away shortly before 8PM. The cause of death was paralysis
of the heart.
Mrs Eyre was born in Brandywine Hundred, Delaware, 63 years ago and came of the Hanby family of Hanby's Corner in Delaware where her relatives are well to do. For many years she resided
near Chelsea in Bethel Twp., where her husband conducted a farm. About 16 years ago they removed to Chester. Four children survive: Frank, Robert, Lulu and Bertha, all of whom are well and
favorably known.
The sudden death of Mrs Eyre shocked the neighborhood. The deceased was a faithful member of the Providence Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church. The funeral will occur on Tuesday afternoon
at 1 o'clock from the husband's residence and services will take place at 2:30 in the Providence Ave. church, in charge of the Rev Josiah Rawden, the Pastor.
