- The community was. shocked, Tuesday afternoon, to learn of the death at 8:45 o'clock that morning of Mrs. Minnie (Mabie) Foland, wife of George C. Foland. which occurred in .the Amsterdam City Hospital where she went for treatment last Friday afternoon. Mrs. Foland had suffered since last August with an enlargement of the heart, which caused her death.
The body was brought to her home at No. 60 Chestnut street on Wednesday. Owing to .the absence in Washington, D. C of an only daughter Miss Catherine Foland, who is with the members of the Senior Class of the High school on the annual trip of the class, the funeral was postponed until Saturday. It will be held at her home on Chestnut street at 2 o'clock with services at the South Valley church at 3 o'clock. The Rev. Edward C. Petrie will officiate and Peter Jones' and Mrs. Herbert M. Pease will render vocal selections. It was the last request of Mrs. Foland that her daughter be allowed to complete the tour before she should be notified of her mother's death. Members of the family, are, therefore, expecting to meet Miss Foland in New York City and bear the sad news to her when she arrives there, Friday evening.
