SI took suddenly worse Sunda night and before her loved on< could reach her she passed awa Monday evening. She is suvived by her fathei Mr. William Davis, of New'Yor and three brothers. Her fathe and brother, Albert, visited he last summer and made man friends during their stay here Miss Davis was 23 years old an a most excellent young womar Her father and two brother were expected to arrive las evening and carry her remain with them to Cincinnati, thei former home.
