Chicago, May 11.—Mrs. Ewing, wife of Adlai T. Ewing, a well-known Chicago attorney, died last Friday of dropsy at her home, 3747 Ellis Avenue. Mr. Ewing said this morning,—
"Mrs. Ewing had had treatment by the best physicians. They told her that her case was hopeless and that death was inevitable. We are Christian Scientists, and as a last resort we tried the Christian Science treatment. It did not save her, but I know it did not hasten her death."
Mr. Ewing is a member of the firm of Ewing, Winchester & Craig, 115 Monroe St. He is a brother of Judge William G. Ewing of the Superior Court, whose wife, Mrs. Ruth B. Ewing, is one of the principal exponents of the Christian Science cult in the West, and Second Reader in the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of this city.—New York Sun.
