Mrs. M. A. Gaffney

One of the saddest deaths that it has been our duty to chronicle in a long time is that of Mrs. M. A. Gaffney, who passed away at her home in Elk River Township, Clinton County, at 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon. It is almost impossible to realize what the loss of this estimable woman means. Six little children, the eldest but ten years old and the youngest a babe of five days, are left without a mother’s care.
