From Nevada Representative March 15, 1882

Died.

Mary Zelpha Martin, wife of one of our city attorneys*, died on Friday morning March 10th, after a brief illness of 13 days; aged 28 years, 5 months and 3 days.

The deceased was taken to Colo, her hormer home for interment.

The funeral services were conducted by Rev. A. Thornbrue of this city where a large congregation assembled to pay their last respects to one they not only respected, but loved. A husband and one child are left to bare the bereavement.

While many who knew her will deeply sympathize with Mr. Martin in his deep affliction, and regret that a home so full of happiness has been despoiled by the hand of the destroyer.

* SUBMITTER'S NOTE: Mary Z. Dailey married James Francis Martin on 31 May 1879 in Boone County, Iowa.
