San Luis Obispo Pioneer; Saturday June 20, 1868 Vol. 1 #25 SUDDEN DEATH.-THE Santa Cruz Sentinel of June 13th says: We regret to record the sudden death of Mrs. Mary RESSER, at Soquel, on Wednesday last, while present at a picnic near the town. The deceased was in good health up to the moment when the icy hand of death interrupted the festivities. She was seated with friends in cheerful conversation, and in an instant was struck with heart disease and fainted away, ending in death. Three years ago her sister, Mrs. PAGELS, died as suddenly, with a similar disease while at a picnic near the same place. "Truly in the midst of life we are in death". The deceased leaves a husband, two children and many relatives and friends in this vicinity to mourn her untimely death.
