DIED.

MULLEN.--At his house in Cresco, Iowa, Sunday morning, February 10, 1889, Martin Mullen, aged about 66 years.

The deceased was about his work as usual up to noon of Thursday before his death, when he was taken with acute bronchitis, terminating fatally as stated above. He was a good old man without an enemy in the wide world. He leaves surviving him a widow advanced in years, and several daughters; Mrs. J. J. Lowry, Mrs. Dr. Connolly, Mrs. J. F. Creamer, Mrs. Ed. Hughes of Oregon, and an unmarried daughter Nellie. Mrs. Creamer and Miss Nellie came home from Crookston recently, and are still visiting in Cresco, having enjoyed a pleasant visit with their venerable father before his demise. Mrs. Lowry and Mrs. Connolly reside in Cresco. In this unexpected bereavement they have the universal sympathy of the people.

Frank Creamer and wife, accompanied by Miss Jennie Mullen, sister to Mrs. Creamer, returned to Crookston, Minn. Although their visit has been attended with a great deal of sorrow, it still must afford them all much satisfaction. Mrs. Creamer and her sister were very unexpectedly called to mourn the death of their father Martin Mullen, while here, and Mr. Creamer as unexpectedly to mourn the death of a sister of his mother, Mrs. Lannon. Its consoling feature is the fact that had their visit been deferred to some later day, the opportunity to see a father alive and in health, though now cold in death, would have been lost, and likewise of Mr. Creamer with his aunt and his father-in-law.
