| Her
husband upon his return from church found Mrs. Julius dead in the
bathtub in the home. Evidently she had been in a hurry to complete
her toilet and was using an electric curling iron while in the bath.
A short-circuit from the iron, sent her body into the water in the
tub, caused her death.
Mr.
Julius, who has been leading the choir of the Methodist church since
the illness of the minister, left the home early Sunday morning.
Mrs. Julius after getting the boys ready sent them on ahead planning
to meet them at Sunday school at the Presbyterian Church. Mr. Julius
noticed their absence from church, supposed they had been delayed
for some reason. Upon his return home from church he was told by
seven-year-old Louis that “mama is resting in the bathtub”
The little fellow had found her there but thinking she was resting
had not disturbed her.
It
is thought that death was almost instantaneous and that
Mrs. Julius didn’t suffer. Copy
