Apohaqui (Kings Co.) June 27 - In the death of Margaret BURGESS widow of George BURGESS, which occurred Tuesday, the whole community has sutained a loss deeply felt. She and her two sons, both unmarried, had lately taken possession of a home more comfortable and commodious than their former residence and the labor connected therewith doubtless hastened her death. Besides the two sons there are two surviving daughters, both of whom are married. Her children were around her at the last. Mrs. Burgess had attained her 61st year.
