Mrs. Emma VanBeuren Osbourn of Shrewsbury died yesterday, aged 93 years. Her death was caused by a general breaking down of her health. She had been very feeble and in failing health for several months. Mrs. Osbourn made her home with Miss Addie White. Her husband died several years ago. She was a sister of Dr. Van Beuren of Shrewsbury, who died about fifteen years ago. The funeral will be held at half-past ten o'clock at Christ church at Shrewsbury to-morrow morning. The service will be conducted by Rev. William N. Baily, and the body will be buried in the churchyard of Christ church.
