Friends in Perry township have received word of the death of Mrs. Gertrude
Bushar, former resident of Plymouth county, at her home near Marshall, Minn.
Death followed a stroke of apoplexy, within a few days.

Mrs. Bushar was before her marriage Miss Gertrude Mahaney, and was a
successful and popular teacher in rural schools in the county for twelve
years.

She was born at Morrison, Ill., August 5, 1876, where she grew up and
received her early education, graduating in the high school class of 1895.

Miss Mahaney was united in marriage with Carey Bushar October 26, 1904.
Following her marriage they engaged in farming in Iowa and Minnesota.

Mrs. Bushar is survived by her husband; a brother, Albert Mahaney, of
Merrill; and a sister, Mrs. Bliss Storer, of Sioux City.

Mrs. Bushar is remembered by a large circle of friends and acquaintances, in
this vicinity, who admired her fine qualities and enjoyed pleasant
associations.
