Death ol Mn. Fraak Paul
The death ol Mrs. Frank W. Paul
which occured Sunday evening at her
home at \ ill.iiiovii.renioves one of the
best-known and highly esteemed
women in the suburban community.
She has been an invalid for more than
a year, but her end was hastened by a
severe cold caught a few days ago,
which aggravated the heart trouble
from which she suffered. As Miss Flor-ence
Oglesby, ol New Orleans, the
daughter of Mr. Joseph H. Oglesby,
she was one of the reigning bells of
the Cresent city, where her beauty
and many accomplishments made her
a unviersal favorite. It was during
the Centennial Exhibition in 1876
when on a visit to this city she met
Mr Prank Paul a young lawyer, and
brother to the beautiful Miss Mary-
Paul who afterward became Mrs.
William Waldrof Astor.. Her en-gagement
was soon announced and
the wedding followed shortly. Mrf.
Paul was interested in many charities
Her httsbaiind and lour children sur-vive
