Wiggins Found Dead in Bed This Morning Mrs. Polly Wiggins, the wife of Isaac B. Wiggins, the well known framer living west of the city, was found dead in her bed this morning. Mrs. Wiggins who is upwards of 60 year os age, retired at the usual hour last night, apparently in the best of health and spirits. When the family got up this morning, she was called and receiving no response, her door was opened and she was found lying in her bed cold in death. There was no sign of struggle and death evidently came quietly and painlessly. She was not known to be subject to any disease. Her death will cause a vacancy in the neighborhood, which cannot at present be readily appreciated or understood. She was a kind neighbor indefatigable in her care of the sick and kind-hearted. The funeral takes place tomorrow at 10 o'clock. The deceased was an aunt of Chief of Police Chris M. Nisley.
