That name and ad- dress were found on @ bicycle license fasued to her by the authorities here. She had come to France to study avi- ation. The young woman took poison on June 1 and lingered until July & It was thought at first by the doctors that she ‘was going to recover, She steadfastly refused to disclose the reason for her desperate act. Some friends in Boston of the dead woman telegraphed the desire that she sho be cremated here, but the French law forbids the cremation of the bodies of persons who have been murdered or have committed suicide, The body will therefore probably be buried in Paris.
