She came there about a week ago to have a painful surgical operation performed. It took place successfully on Monday, but she did not have sufficient vitality to rally from its effects. I have seen Mrs. Pelton every day previous to the operation and on Sunday she spoke of you very affectionately asking me to see or write to you for her. She was quite unable to write herself, but wished you to know that she was here and that she hoped you would come to see her during her convalescence which we both fully anticipated. The funeral will take place tomorrow (Thursday) at one o'clock in Mt. Kisco.

I remain
Very Sincerely
Ellen Shiland
