Injuries Proved Fatal.
Preston, Minn., July 14.—Mrs. W. W. Fife died yesterday from injuries received about ten days ago. She was out riding in the country with her brother, Charley Seeley, when suddenly the team became unmanageable and backed the buggy down an embankment, spilling Mrs. Fife out, and dislocating her hip. No other injury was discovered, but it is thought she sustained internal injuries. She leaves a husband, a son and a daughter. She was universally liked by all.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows this was Susan and her maiden name is spelled Seely on her gravestone. She was born Nov. 27, 1844 and died July 13, 1898. She is buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Preston, MN.
