SAD ENDING OF A HONEYMOON

Mrs. George L. Hull, of Morristown, N.J., died at the Carrollton Hotel, in Baltimore, on Wednesday evening, under very sad circumstances. Mr. and Mrs. Hull were married in New-York on the 22d of Feburary last, and went to Baltimore on their bridal tour. Mr. Hull was taken ill with rheumatism the second day after their arrival. He was sick some time and, before his recovery his young wife was seized with a heavy cold, which ran into pneumonia. Dr. Frank Donaldson was called to attend her, and did not express any fears of a fatal termination of the case until Wednesday, on the evening of which she died, just one month after her marriage. Mrs. Hull was a daughter of Hon. S.A. Foot, of Geneva, N.Y., and was about twenty years of age. Her sisters, Miss Foot and Mrs. Whitridge, of New-York, and Mr. Hull’s father, were present at her death. The remains will be taken to Morristown, N.J., where her husband resides.
