Mrs. Mary Haley, widow of the late Michael Haley, died at her home, 320 east Second street last evening after a brief illness from heart failure. The deceased had been in poor health for several months past but yesterday she was feeling unusually well. In the evening she retired and was taken seriously ill about 11 o'clock and death resulted almost immediately.

Mrs. Haley was sixty-three years of age and was born in Queens County, Ireland. She came to this country early in life and has been a resident of this city for the past thirty-five years. Her husband, Michael Haley, died about four years ago. Until the seventh of March, 1896, the deceased lived at 1511 Gaston street. She was a devout member of the Roman Catholic church and in full communion with that faith. She is survived by four sons, Michael, Thomas, Dennis and Matthew, of this city and two sisters, Mrs. Eliza Delaney and Mrs. Kate Lamb, both of this city.

The funeral will be held from the residence of her sister, Mrs. Eliza Delaney, 320 east Second street, Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock with services at St. Anthony's church and interment at St. Marguerite's cemetery.
