JANE ROLAND
Found Dead
Jane Roland, an old colored woman who for some time has been the pastry cook at the Pheonix hotel, was found dead on the road near the fair-ground last night.
She cooked all day at the hotel and started home abut 8 o'clock; apparently in her usual health. About 10 o'clock she was found dead. The doctors pronounced it heart disease.
