“Mrs. Thomas Allen, of 124 Wheat street, died suddenly this afternoon at her late home, of pneumonia. She was about 55 years of age and leaves only her husband, who is a stone-mason. She was taken with a bad cold several days ago, which yesterday developed into pneumonia. Death was entirely unexpected. She has been a resident of Ithaca most for her life. The funeral arrangements have not yet been made.”
