Obituary

KELLY

This morning at the residence, 1409 Locust street, occurred the death of Mrs. Bridget Kelly, an old lady well known in this city. The deceased was born in County Galway, Ireland, seventy years ago. She came to Iowa in 1864 and has reared a large family in this city. One week ago she was taken with a cold which developed into pneumonia and which finally caused her death. Her husband died some time ago. Seven children are left to mourn her death. Michael, John, Andy and Thomas, living at home, Mrs. M.J. Malloy, 1714 Marquette street, James of Beardstown, Ill., and Mrs. G. Alex of Chicago.

The funeral arrangements have not been completed as the arrival of the relatives who live elsewhere is uncertain and the funeral announcement will therefore be made later.
