  ...Isabella Robbins and Chattle Throckmorton, two spinsters who lived
together in the same house at Loyalton, near Long Branch, for sixty five
years, were separated by death on Sunday.  Miss Robbins, who died, was
93 years old last June.  Miss Throckmorton has just passed her ninetieth
birthday, and is still hale and hearty.
