Death Of Mrs. A. Bennett

DEATH OF MRS. A. BENNETT

Mrs. Amanda Bennett died suddenly at her home, 707 Church St., Friday night. She had been at home two months from the University hospital, where she had spent seven weeks in treatment under Drs. Dock and Herdman without the hope of a permanent cure, Mrs. Bennett was feeling unusually well and much encouraged until yesterday, when she was taken suddenly ill and died at 7:30 last night.

Mrs. Bennett was Miss Amanda Worden, of Whiteford, Mich. She was born in 1841 and married in 1868 to Adam Bennett, who was for some time in the employ of the Grank Trunk railroad in the course of its construction between Port Huron and Detroit. Mr. Bennett died four years ago in New Haven, where he was well known as the democratic representative in the state legislature from the first district of Macomb county.

Mrs. Bennett came to Ann Arbor a year after her husband's death, to educate her children. She leaves two sons and two daughters--Adam A. Bennett of New Haven, Edwin J. Bennett, Springfield, O., Mrs. G. L. Lewis, West Toledo, O., and Dr. Mabelle Bennett of Ann Arbor.

While in Ann Arbor, Mrs. Bennett made many close friends.
