MRS. HARRISON DIED AFTER LONG ILLNESS

Last rites to be Friday at 10:00 a.m. at St. Mary's Catholic Church

Mrs. Martha Agnes HARRISON, whose home is about two miles west of Fairfield, passed away at 6:00 p.m. Wednesday in the Sunny Slope Sanitarium at Ottumwa. She had been in poor health for the past five years.

Funeral services will be Friday morning at 10:00 a.m. at the St. Mary's Catholic church with the Rev. Fr. H.M. Thoman in charge. Burial will be in the Abingdon cemetery. Friends may call at the Hoskins funeral home this evening.

Mrs. HARRISON was born December 27, 1910, in Fairfield, and had lived in this community most of her life.

She leaves her husband, William HARRISON and three small children, George, Sandra and Dannie, and her father, John BURKE of Chicago.

The following brothers and sisters also survive: Andrew BURKE, Chicago; Mrs. John FAULKNER, Fairfield; Mrs. J.A. MAREK, Chicago; Miss Jane BURKE, Omaha; Miss Mary BURKE, Dayton, Ohio; and Raymond BURKE, California.

**I research the HARRISON/ALLISON/PEEBLER lineages.**

Admin. note: Husband George died in 1948 and is buried with her.
