President Palmer’s Mother Passes Away

A sufferer from paralysis for more than two years, Mrs. J. B. Palmer, mother of W. S. Palmer, president of the Northwestern Pacific, and cousin of Mrs. G. G. Vanderlip, passed away Monday night at her home in Oakland.

In the past two years she had survived five attacks of the malady to which she finally succumbed.

Mrs. W. S. Palmer’s mother passed away two weeks ago.

Dr. and Mrs. G. G. Vanderlip were called to Oakland on the occasion of the illness of Mrs. Palmer and were present when death occurred.
