Mrs. Coe, the aged mother of Mrs. Post, died last night at the Post residence after a long period of suffering. Her aged husband, for a long time an inmate of the Norfolk asylum, escaped a few days ago and by hiding in daytime and traveling at night, reached the bedside of his wife where he was permitted to remain for a time.
