Miss Sewell was 19 years of age and a d/o Emery SEWELL, a prominent raftsman of Gibson, N.B. Accompnaied by the Misses HOBEN, she went to Bear River, N.S. to visit Rev. NOBLES and family who were recently stationed at Gibson. About a fortnight ago she was stung on the lip by some insect. Blood poisoning set in and resulted in her death on Saturday. For a time she attended the Baptist Seminary at St. Martins.
