Mrs. Marshall Field Dead.
Chicago, Feb. 24.—Mrs. Marshall Field died in Nice yesterday of peritonitis. She was ill only about forty-eight hours.
Although Mrs. Field had been practically an invalid for fifteen years, her sojourn in Europe since 1891 had benefitted her greatly.
Mrs. Field was fifty-four years old. She was the daughter of Robert Scott, formerly a wealthy ironmaster of Ironton, Ohio. She was married to Marshall Field in 1863, and the only children were a son and daughter—Marshall Field, jr., and Mrs. Arthur Tree.
Mrs. Field was not a society woman in the accepted sense of the term, but was prominent because of her husband's immense wealth. She was a very charitable woman, but, instead of giving through a regular organized society, she had a personal agent, who sought out deserving cases and attended to them.
The body will be brought to this country but the place of burial has not yet been decided upon.
