DEATH YESTERDAY OF MISS LENA ELLIS
	Miss Lena Ellis passed away at the residence of her aunt, Mrs. Stewart 
1445 Third street, yesterday. Miss Ellis called upon Mrs. Stewart on last 
Sunday to take dinner with the family, and during the afternoon was taken ill. 
Before the night she was feeling so badlythat Mrs. Stewart would not permit her 
to return to the Revere house, where she lives with another aunt, Mrs. E.D. 
Stone. She resided with Mrs. Stewart up to the time of her death.During her 
illness she had been under the care of Dr. J.B. Stone, and then Drs. Franklin, 
Oatman and Khetsch were called, the two later, however, did not arrive until 
after she had passed away.
	Miss Ellis had for some time been in the employ of C.W. Erasting, the 
jeweler who speaks very highly of her personal qualities and her ability as a 
conscientious clerk. Besides the two aunts before mentioned, the departed girl 
leaves a father, mother, two sisters, and another brother now in Texas.
	Private funeral services were held at Johnson & Connell’s chapel last 
evening and the remains will be taken to Descanso today for interment.
