DIED OF A BROKEN HEART
INFANTA ISABEL OF SPAIN. SHOOK OF THE REVOLUTION. By Telegraph—Press Assn.— Copyright. Paris, April 23. That the revolution broke her heart, is the French comment on the Infanta Isabel of Sppin, who has died in France. It is recalled that when she was informed of the flight of the Royal family the Infanta declared: “I do not mind if I die on the train; I will not die in Republican Spain.” Though the Republicans invited her to remain, she rose from her sick bed and insisted on going to Paris. The Government provided a special compartment, arid despite her paralysis Isabel appeared to stand the journey well. She had since received callers, but collapsed, in the afternoon. Queen Ena motored from Fontainebleau. All her children, except the Prince of the Asturias, knelt at the bedside engaged in prayer.
