A painful sensation was caused in town yesterday morning (says the Westport News), when word was circulated that Mrs rtobert Falla, wife of one of our oiOßt esteemed citizens, had suddenly passed away. Deceased had been in enfeeble 1 health for several months past, but her relatives were confident right up to the night before her death that she would ultimately recover. Yesterday morning, however, she rank rapidly and amid the deep regrets of the relatives who had assembled at the bedside passed away quict'y. Mrs Falla was a woman of a genial, loveable disposition, with everready practical sympathy, and was a great favourite with o'.d and young people of all classes. By her death, Mr Falla and family lose a devoted wife and mother and the district loses an earnest and helpful social worker, whoso place it will bo hard to fill. Deepest sympathy is felt for the sorrowing relatives, including }Jrs Robert and Mrs Henry Young, sisters of ihc deceased.
