t •— [ DEATH OF MRS. LITTLE. j f Mrs. Cornelius Little, who with her 1 sister, the late Mrs. Angus Nieolson. was - attacked by serious illness at Milfcrd Beach, Takapuna, on the a'ternoon of - April 25, died at 12.30 a.m. to-day. Mrs. > Nicolson. who died a few hours after : the attack commenced, was at first sup- • posed to have contracted ptomaine nol- ' soning. but the evidence at the inquest showed that death was due to cerebral haemorrhage, to which, it was stated, h»*r family was peculiarly liable. Mrs. Little remained in a critical condition, being for the most part unconscious until her death, which was from the same cause as her sister's. Dr. Bennett, who has been attending her, has given a certificate as to the cause cf death, and an \ inquest will, of course, be unnecessary. I Mrs. Little was 59 years of age, and I the wife of Mr. C. Little, undertaker, of | Hobson-street. She leaves an adult family. i
