Glenbeulah - July 16, 1906 - The remains of Mrs. Margaret Mullen were brought here from Iron Mountain, Mich., on Thursday morning, and taken to the home of Jas. Mooney, where they were in state until 10:30 a. m. whence they were borne to the Catholic church where the funeral was held, Father Meyer saying mass. The decased was a former highly respected citizen of this village and was about ninety years of age. The interment was made in Greenbush. The following children accompanied the remains to the village, John, Patsy and Thomas and Miss Mary of Iron Mountain; Mrs. S. Knowles of Sheboygan; Michael of Ironwood. One daughter Mrs. Sarah Brown of Nebraska was not present. A few months ago she visited her mother and account of the long distance it was hardly possible for her to be present. The sorrowing family have the deepest sympathy of their friends in this community. Many relatives and friends from Sheboygan were also present at the last sad rites.

Greenbush - Herman C. Maurer of Glenbeulah who has been employed by the William Scott company for many years, met with an accident Thursday afternoon which caused his death at 8 o'clock the same evening at the Plymouth hospital, where he was at once taken. He and Samuel Scott, son of W. D. Scott of Glenbuelah, went to the farm owned by G. Neubauer west of Greenbush village to get a load of hay and while returning, about three miles from the village on the Fond du Lac - Sheboygan road, the load overturned and Mr. Maurer suffered a fractured skull and jaw, while young Scott escaped unhurt. Mr. Maurer was assessor for the town of Greenbush several years, was a member of ? O.O.F. lodge and has held many positions of trust in Glenbeulah. The sympathy of the entire community is extended Mrs. Maurer and family. There are four daughter, Miss Elfreda, a teacher in the Sheboygan schools, Miss 'Cinda, who is attending the U. of W.; Mrs. William Bubb of Plymouth and Miss Junieta at home, a student in Glebeulah high school, and two brothers, Ervin, an enlisted soldier with the troops in France, and Carl of Milwaukee

The last sad rites for Mr. Herman C. Maurer were held Sunday afternoon, the Odd Fellows having charge of the service at the home, from where the remains were taken to Lyceum hall. At the hall Rev. Mr. Beisser of Plymouth conducted service, which was attended by many friends, despite the inclemency of the weather and the badly drifted highways. George L. Wittkopp of Plymouth was the undertaker. The many beautiful floral tributes spoke more eloquently than words of the high esteem in which the departed was held. While all deplore the very sudden and unexpected removal from our midst of one who had so long lived among us and was a worthy neighbor, there is some consolation that his suffering was not so acute as his injuries might suggest. In his demise the village has lost one who was ever ready to assist in any undertaking for the good of the community, and took an active part in promoting its welfare.

The most sincere and heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out to the family in their sad bereavement.

Back to the scenes of her girlhood.

No more will her sweet smile greet us
No more will we see her face
Our mother has gone and left us,
Now there is a vacant place.

On Friday evening, February 23rd, at the home of his father in Duluth occurred the death of Thomas, son of John L. Murphy, formerly an old resident of Mitchell, and a brother of Peter H. Murphy.

Thomas was completing his 26th year, was born in the town of Mitchell and when a small boy moved with his parents to Chicago, then to Duluth, where he has since lived. He was taken sick about six months ago and since that time he has suffered with that long and tedious illness of tuberculosis, which gradually sapped his strength away.

The last few weeks of his life was well utilized, he having made every available preparation to meet his eternal God. Thus a loving son and brother went to his final sleep at 7:30 o'clock, Friday, Feb. 23, 1912.

Besides his father he is survived by five brothers - Jerry, Edward, Charles and Robert of Duluth; Joe of New York, three sisters - Mrs. Frank Keating, Mrs. Fred Roth and Miss Katharine, all of Duluth.

The funeral services were held on Monday, Feb. 26th, at St. Mary's Catholic church in Duluth and laid to rest in the city cemetery.

The sad news reached here last Friday morning, Feb. 28, 1908 of the death of Bernard Wilbur, the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Will Murphy of Milwaukee. The funeral was held Saturday morning at 10 o'clock from St. Thomas' church to Calvary cemetery. The deepest sympathy is extended to the grief stricken parents. Those from out of town who attended the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. P.H. Murphy, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Phalen , Mr. and Mrs. John Lindsay {Plymouth} and Mrs. Ben Butler.

Young life budded, bloomed and died,
If that was all 'twas sad indeed;
That we must hope beyond the grave
"Twas for our sake, Christ's wounds did bleed.
There is no death, and angel form
Walks o'er the earth with silent tread;
He bears our best loved ones away
And then we call them dead.

Mrs. William Murphy, nee Clifford, was buried in Mitchell on the 16 inst. Services were conducted by Father Burke. She was one of the old pioneer settlers and a woman highly respected by those who knew her.

It is with the greatest sadness we are called upon to record the death of Mrs. Catherine Murphy which occurred at the home of her daughter Mrs. Matt Gaynor last Friday night, Aug. 5th. For the past year she has been in failing health, but few of her friends expected that the end was so near. A severe complication of bowel trouble ended her earthly career.

Mrs. Murphy, nee Catherine Harrington, was born in Castletown, County Cork, Ireland in 1834. Emigrating when quite young to this country, she lived for some years in Fall River and Boston, later moving to Milwaukee where she was married to Daniel Murphy in 1855, who preceded her in death seven years ago. She finally settled with her family in the town of Mitchell where she resided until six years ago when she made her home with her daughter in Plymouth.

Those who knew best her self-sacrificing nature, simple faith and deep religious fervor, will see in her death the crown of her life. Respected by friends, devotedly loved by her family, she died lamented by all, no funeral sermon was needed to inform them of her worth. Her life, the greater part of which was spent in her country home away from the crowds of city life, teaches us an eloquent lesson and furnished us with an inspiring example which we would all do well to follow. Mrs. Murphy was of an amiable happy disposition, displaying the greatest of patience and resignation in her last painful illness, appreciating greatly every act of kindness bestowed upon her. She was a devout Catholic, a faithful member of the Mother Church. A life is noble in proportion as it has before it a noble ideal and strives manfully to live up to it, but nowhere in all the universe of human thought and inspiration can there be found such an ideal as faith from her earliest years held before her; it showed her that she was the offspring of infinite love and that her destiny was the perfection and the beatitude of being in love eternal.

Nine children were born to her of which eight are living as follows: Mrs.Margaret Roberts of Duluth, Mrs. M. Fitzgerald of Osceola, Mrs. J. Lynch of Mitchell, Mrs. Matt. Gaynor and Mrs. George Lindsay of Plymouth, T.F. and J.D. Murphy of Milwaukee and Ed. Murphy of Minneapolis. She also leaves twenty-one grandchildren and one great grand child. Requiem High mass was celebrated by Rev. Father Meyer in St. John's church Monday, a very appropriate sermon was delivered by the latter. After services the remains were conveyed to their last resting place in Mitchell cemetery where Father Fischer performed the last sad rites of the Catholic church at the grave of the deceased. The remains were followed to the church by a large concourse of mourning friends and relatives.

Those from away attending the funeral were Mrs. J. Connell, D. Murphy, J. Clark and Misses Nellie Mahoney and Mary Murphy of Milwaukee, Mrs. J. O'Brien and son {?} of Fond du Lac.

While going home from Parnell on Wednesday, April 16th, Thomas Madden met with a serious accident which resulted in his death on Saturday following. As he turned the corner leading to his home, the horses became frightened and ran away throwing Mr. Madden out of the rig, breaking several of his ribs and otherwise injuring him internally.

Mr. Madden was born on the farm on which he died, April 8th, 1861 and lived thereon continuously until his death. He was large of statue{sic} and like all large people was possessed of a kindly nature, which though some faults he might have had, endeared him to those with whom he came in contact and a more loyal and obedient son to a mother never lived, but what a man cannot amend in himself or others, he must bear with patience until God ordains otherwise.

The funeral took place Tuesday morning at ten o'clock in St. Michael's cemetery in the town of Mitchell, Rev. Father Fisher officiating.

Mr. Madden is survived by his aged mother, Mrs. Mary Madden. His father John Madden, an old pioneer of Mitchell, preceded him in death several years ago. One brother John of Akron, Ohio, and two sisters Mrs. Peter McMahon of Fairmont, Minn., and Mrs. Phillip McMahon of Mitchell, S.D., a niece Mrs. Geo. Murphy living on the homestead also survive.

Hail, queen of the heavens,
Hail, Mistress of the earth!

Thee God in the depth of eternity chose,
And formed thee all fair, as his gorgeous spouse.

The Angel of Death has again visited our midst and taken from a now sorrowing community, a kind and affectionate mother, a true and sincere friend, and an honorable and respected citizen, Mrs. Anna Mangan, whose many friends will learn of her death with sorrow and profound regret.

Mrs. Mangan was called to receive the crown of immortality on Palm Sunday morning at 12:30 o'clock, March 24, 1907, at her home at Rathbun, after an illness of three months with heart disease.

The deceased whose maiden name was Anna Rooney, was born in Slygo county, Ireland, Nov. 21, 1838. At an early age she emigrated with her parents to this country and settled in Wisconsin. In 1855 she was united in marriage to John Mangan, who preceded her in death three years ago. They settled on the farm where they have since resided.

All who were intimate with the deceased will join in expressing the warmest praise for the many estimable qualities she possessed. Honest to the full extent of the word, faithful in all duties of life, she was kind and considerate at all times, ever loving and good. These were the attributes of her life and blessings that her family enjoyed. She bore her long and painful siege of illness without complaining. Her demise, which was calm and peaceful, was a fitting close of a life which exemplified the saying: "As we live, so shall we die." She is survived by seven children, who were at her bedside when she passed away. The following are the children; Thomas, John, Henry and William of Mitchell {Sheboygan county}, Edward of Milwaukee; two daughters, Mrs. V. {Wi}lliston of Sherburn, Minn., and Miss Margaret at home.

The pallbearers were Attorneys R.J. Rooney of Plymouth and F.J. Rooney of Appleton, Thomas Rooney of Milwaukee, John Rooney, Thomas Madden and Thomas Kiernan of Mitchell, all nephews of the deceased.

The remorseless enemy of mankind has again visited our community and taken from our midst a lovely personality, who possessed all the sublime traits of womanhood. "Man is the image and glory of God but the woman is the glory of man" says the Great Book. This is so true, that most of the charities and mercies for which mankind gets credit in his own moral intelligence are inspired by the charitable and merciful attributes so characteristic of true womanhood. The above quotations might truthfully be applied to the past life of Mrs. Anna Mangan, who after much suffering for the last six months, passed away peacefully at her home in the city last Friday afternoon of cancer, from the agonies of which she has been a martyr during all that time. She bore her sufferings however, with a christian fortitude that elicited praise from those who called to see her during her illness.

Mrs. Anna Mangan was born in the town of Lyndon, July 6th, 1882 and her childhood days were spent on the farm, attending the district school near her home, after which she attended the Waldo High School and graduated and took up the profession of teaching. She was married to William Mangan Oct. 17th, 1906 at St. Patrick's church in Adell and immediately went to live on the farm home in the town of Mitchell from where the family moved three years ago, and has since been living in this city. To that union six children {Article cut here}.

...some years ago. She is survived by her husband and five children who are Merlin, Gordon, Donald and Norbert the baby and one daughter Mildred, the oldest of whom is only ten years of age and would still need a mother's care were it the providence of God to spare her, but unfortunately, the children are bereft of a fond mother's love and guidance, just when they are most in need of the same.

The remains were taken to the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Sullivan, in Lyndon, Saturday afternoon from where the funeral took place at 9 A.M. Monday morning, then to St. Michael's Catholic church where a requiem mass was celebrated for the soul of the deceased. The interment was made in St. Michael's cemetery, where the mortal remains of a true wife, a fond mother and an obedient daughter and also a loving sister will rest, Rev. Father Burke officiated.

Byer and Mrs. James M{?} {Article cut off}.

The deceased was a devout church member and an active worker in the Christian Mothers' Society. That she was held in high esteem was attested in the large attendance at the funeral, many people coming from a considerable distance to pay their last respects to the deceased.

About 8 o'clock last Friday evening occurred the death of Andrew McDonnell at his home on Main street, the cause of death being general debility. He is one of the earliest settlers of Sheboygan county.

Mr. McDonnell was born in Mayo county, Ireland, March 25, 1839 and came to this country in the forties and later in 1850 came to Sheboygan county with his parents and settled on a farm in the northern part of the town of Scott. Mr. and Mrs. McDonnell gave up farming two years ago and moved to this city, living in retirement.

H. Hardgrove of Fond du Lac; Andrew of Hosmar, B.C.; Charles of this city.

Those who knew Mr. McDonald in his prime could not but have observed the contrast in his condition then and during the latter years of his life. He was strong physically and apparently capable of unlimited exertion. Many a giant of the forests of Wisconsin gave away to the sturdy blows of an ax in his hands. He spent many winters in the northern woods, and also aided in clearing up the excellent farm he owned in Scott. His neighbors in that town and Mitchell recall that he was obliging and honest.

He died there yesterday morning at the Murray hospital, where he had been for a week. He went to Butte to be treated for cancer of the throat, a disease with which he had been afflicted for several years.

A delegation of sorrowing friends met the body at the Northern Pacific depot. It was taken at once to the McLaughlin home on West Pine street.

H.W. McLaughlin was born in Pittsburg, Pa., on March 6, 1854. In 1882 he came to Montana and then to Missoula, where he had been a resident for 23 years at the time of his death. When he first came he was superintendent of bridges and building for the Northern Pacific.

A Friend

Francis McNicholas, {brother of} P.H. McNicholas of this city, passed away at his home at Iron Mountain, Mich., Monday, death following a protracted period of ill health during which the deceased suffered from hardening of the arteries. Funeral services were held at Iron Mountain Thursday at the Catholic church and the remains were interred in that city.

News of the death of Mr. McNicholas came as a shock to friends of the family here, for though it was known he had been in ill-health his demise was not expected. Mr. McNicholas was born in this city on November 10, 1885 and spent the early years of his life here. Entering the railway mail service he had a run on the Milwaukee road for a number of years.

Resigning from the railway mail service he accepted a place as assistant post-master at Iron Mountain, Mich., a post he held until the time of his death.

Mr. McNicholas was wedded about ten years ago to Miss Jessie Liebchen of Iron Mountain and the union was blessed with two children. Surviving him are his wife, two children, Helen and Leo, his mother, Mrs. P. H. McNicholas of this city; two brothers, Harry of Washington, D.C. and Dr. Leo McNicholas of LaCrosse and four sisters, Cecelia, who is teaching in Spokane, Wash.; Marguerite, who teaches at Denmark; Rose, who is employed at Milwaukee and Sister Rosanne of St. Agnes Convent, Fond du Lac. Among those who attended the services were Mrs. Mary McNicholas and Rosalia McNicholas and Geo. O'Connell of this city; Dr. L.J. McNicholas of LaCrosse and Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Cheney, Mrs. John Brogan and F. McNicholas of Green Bay.

Thomas McN{icholas died in the} town of Mitchell last {?} at the age of 91 years. Death was by general debility due to his years.

Deceased was born in County M{ayo} Ireland. He was married in the old country to Miss Bridget D{?} shortly after which they came {to} America and settled in New York sta{te}. They remained in the state for so{me}time and later in Pennsylvania and {in} the early days of Wisconsin came {to} Racine. Forty-four years ago they came to Mitchell {Sheboygan county} and settled on the farm where his death occurred.

There are six children surviving; Mrs. John Brogan of Mitchell, Mrs. James Godfrey of Greenbush, Mrs. James Keyes of Lyndon, Mrs. Anna Sullivan of Milwaukee, P.H. McNicholas of this city and Frank at home. The wife and mother preceded him some twenty years ago.

Mr. McNicholas was one of the oldest residents and best known men of the town of Mitchell and held the respect and confidence of all his neighbors.

The funeral was held on Sunday morning at 9:30 from St. Michael's church, the Rev. B.J. Burke conducting the services. The children were all present at the funeral. Interment was made in the cemetery adjoining the church.

As if a thunder bolt had come out of a clear sky, such was the shock that came to the people of this city when the news came forth that P.H. McNicholas and {sic} dropped dead while at the dinner table Wednesday at about 12:30 o'clock. He was so well known that the mention of his name in that connection put everybody on edge, as he had been seen on the streets so recently. Nobody expected to hear such a report, but he had been ailing a week or so, which was thought not seriously. He however had a quite sick spell last spring which no doubt left him in a weakened condition.

Deceased was born in Ireland, 66 years ago and came to America when an infant. The family lived in New York for a while then at Racine, and about 60 years ago came to the town of Mitchell, where Mr. McNicholas' father purchased a farm, on which the family lived until the parents died. Mr. McNicholas got all the education that could be derived from the schools of those days and as he was an apt scholar, he so well mastered the educational problems of his environments, that he taught school in the country for several years. He also was a bookkeeper for M.O. Grady, the largest Farm Implement dealer in the county. He also was a bookkeeper for the Plymouth Brewery and was City Justice of Plymouth. He conducted for a while the farm now owned by M.H. Hand, south of the city, which he sold about eight years ago and since has been employed at the street car depot. Pat, as he was familiarly called, was a man of fine sensibilities, always considerate of the feelings of others, awake to the responsibilities of life, generous to a fault and endeavoring at all times to live up to the scruptual {sic} admonition of "do unto others, as you would that they should do unto you." He was marred {sic} thirty four years ago at Cascade to Miss Mary Gaynor. He was a member of the Catholic Knights of Wisconsin, in good standing. He is survived by his widow and seven children as follows: Francis of Iron Mountain, Mich.; Dr. Leo at the Great Lakes Training Station and Harry of Washington, D.C.; Misses Mary, Cecelia, Rosalia and Marguerita at home; two grandchildren and one brother Frank of Reedsville and two sisters, Mrs. Anna Sullivan of Milwaukee and Mrs. John Brogan of this city.

The funeral will take place today with interment in the Catholic cemetery. To the bereaved we extend a heartfelt condolence in the loss of a good and kind husband, father, brother and a true friend.

Funeral services for Frank McNicholas, 71, who passed away unexpectedly at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday at Manitowoc were held at 9 a.m. Thursday at the Wittkopp Funeral Home at Plymouth and at 9:30 a.m. at St. John the Baptist Catholic church there, the Rev. A.J. July officiating. Members of the Holy Name society, of which Mr. McNicholas was a member, conducted a vigil at the funeral home Wednesday evening.

Mr. McNicholas was born Sept. 5, 1868, in the town of Mitchell, the youngest child of Thomas and Bridget McNicholas. His early education was acquired at the Pius school, located a short distance from their home. His mother passed away when he was 10 years of age and he grew to young manhood in the home of his sister, the late Mrs. John Brogan. When 16 years old he went to Hull's Crossing in Greenbush where he learned cheesemaking from the late Oliver Haslee. In his early twenties he returned to his former Burke home and bought the present Gordon Burke factory. He continued there for 15 years, after which he bought the cheese factory near the Gus Cosgrove farm at Rathbun where a store and post office were also located. He moved the factory to the present site of the John Scannel factory at Rathbun Corners. He remained there until 1910, enjoying a large patronage.

Wishing to enjoy a vacation, he sold his factory and spent his time traveling. When not away, he made his home with two of his sisters, Mrs. John Brogan and Mrs. James Godfrey, now deceased. In 1912, he went to Maple Grove, Manitowoc county, where he owned and operated a cheese factory until 1927 when he went to Grimms, Wis., where he bought another cheese factory. Here he remained until this past summer when he retired.

Mr. McNicholas' success in his work and the admiration of his patrons for his ability is best shown by the length of time he served in each locality. In every case he built up a small business into one of large patronage.

Mr. McNicholas was of strong moral character and a splendid example of integrity to the companions of his youth whom he befriended on many occasions. This attribute was symbolic of him throughout his life whether in business or in social affairs. He was very fond of young people and enjoyed nothing more than taking a young relative with him on a trip or to a football or baseball game.

Survivors include the following nephews and nieces: Dr. H.T. Brogan, William and Jay Brogan, Mrs. John Clark, Milwaukee; Mrs. Joe Dunn, Mrs. Laura Schultz, Chicago; Mrs. Charles Cheney, Green Bay; Miss Celia McNicholas, Racine; Harry McNicholas, Washington, D.C.; Sister Rose Ann, Fort Wayne, Ind.; Mrs. Ed Kuestner, Waunaukee; Orton Keyes, Platteville; Robert Godfrey, Sheboygan; William Sullivan, Fond du Lac; Ed Sullivan, Ripon, and George Sullivan, California.

Pallbearers were: M.H. Hand, Mike Crosby, John O'Connell of Plymouth, Thomas Welsch, George Connell and Joe Walmer of Maple Grove. Interment was made on the Godfrey lot in St. John's cemetery at Plymouth.

Mrs. Margaret McNair, 62 years old, well known in Greenbush, Mitchell and vicinity, died after an operation at the Plymouth hospital Tuesday. She had complained of not feeling well for some time. After {the opera}tion it was hoped that she {would r}ecover, but she grew weaker {and w}eaker until the end.

She was born in Milwaukee, Aug. 8, 1855, and spent her childhood days there. She had many friends and many will grieve at the announcement of her death. Deceased was liked in the neighborhood of her home and was known as an agreeable and lovable woman and friend. Mrs. McNair was well known in Plymouth and vicinity.

The sincere sympathy of the community is extended to the grief stricken family in their dark {?} sorrow and bereavement.

Henry W. McMurphy, for nearly 60 years a resident of the town of Lyndon, died at his home in Waldo on Monday, July 28, 1913 at the age of 80 years.

Mr. McMurphy was born in Painesville, Ohio, May 2, 1833. When a lad he went as a sailor on the Great Lakes and later on the Gulf of Mexico, making many trips to the West Indies and up the Atlantic coast; also making one trip to Liverpool on a trading vessel.

In 1855, he came to Sheboygan county, Wisconsin, locating a farm on Sec. 16, Town of Lyndon. In 1857 he married Mary A. Stone, daughter of one of the first settlers in the county. They went to Painesville, Ohio, where they remained for a few years, but in 1861 returned to the Wisconsin farm which was their home until 1900, when they retired to a home in Waldo. Mrs. McMurphy died eight years ago.

Of the five children, the three daughters survive, who are Mrs. Mabel Harling, Waldo; Mrs. Mira Kennedy, Chicago and Mrs. Caroline Carpenter of Waldo. The sons, John and Harley died in 1899 and 1900, three months apart. There are four grandchildren, Harley Harling, Gladys and Howard Kennedy and Ruth Carpenter.

Mr. McMurphy often held public offices and was in many ways associated with the business of the town for years, was one of the old-time republicans and took an active part in politics. He held his interest in general affairs and read his daily newspaper up to three days before his death.

After the death of Mrs. McMurphy, the youngest daughter came to make her home with him and gave him every care and attention in his declining years. He had suffered with an incurable affliction for years, yet it did not apparently shorten his days, as his demise was due mainly to the infirmities of age.

The funeral was held Wednesday morning at the residence, Rev. Smith of Milwaukee, a friend of the family officiating, with burial in the family lot in Winooski cemetery.

Mr. McMurphy, in his death, needs no eulogy. His long life spent in this community stands for all that is necessary. His dealings with his fellowmen, his upright life, are his tributes, his monument, his legacy. In the passing of this man, who had lived through and took an active part in the development of the county since its pioneer days, the present generation is reminded of the debt of gratitude they owe to these sturdy pioneers, who conquered the wilderness and overcame all obstacles in a new county, that their children and children's children might reap the benefits, a priceless legacy to them and all future generations.

They have builded well and now rest from their labors.

Mrs. H.W. McMurphy, a resident of Waldo for many years, passed away shortly after six o'clock Monday evening, death being caused by hemmorrhage of the stomach, from which she had been suffering for a considerable length of time. The funeral took place from the home at ten o'clock this forenoon, being directed by Undertaker Schram of Plymouth, and the remains were laid to their final rest in the cemetery at Winooski.

Mrs. McMurphy whose maiden name was Stone, was a daughter of James and Lucinda Stone, numbered among the earliest settlers of Winooski. She was born on April 17th, 1839, in Berkshire, Vermont, and was therefore in her sixty-seventh year at the time of her death. She came to Wisconsin with her parents in 1845, the family settling on a farm near Winooski, and she has since continued making her home in this vicinity. She was a lady well known and held in high esteem by a wide circle of friends by whom she will be sadly missed. Mr. McMurphy survives his wife besides whom there are three children, as follows: Mrs. Henry Harling of Waldo, Mrs. E.A. Kennedy of Chicago and Mrs. Caroline Carpenter of Lake City Minnesota. Two sons, John and Harley McMurphy, passed away five years ago their deaths occurring within a few months of each other.

The remains of John McMurphy, who died in Denver, Col., from the effects of a mine accident, arrived at Waldo Wednesday evening and were taken to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H.W. McMurphy. The funeral was held Thursday afternoon at the house, Rev. Cody of Waldo speaking briefly. The burial was in Winooski cemetery. The shock is very great to his parents who only a little over four months ago buried their younger son Harley, who died at Norfolk, Va. and was brought home for burial, the circumstances being very sad. At that time John came home for a short visit, returning Oct. 7th to Breckinridge. The past twelve years he had lived in Breckinridge, Col. and was engaged in mining. When injured he was taken to Denver for medical treatment but it was known from the first that his injuries would prove fatal. He lived nine weeks, and during that time would not give the nurses the address of the home folks, as he said he did not wish to alarm or worry them. A letter which came to him from home was taken from him while he slept, and his people notified, but another message immediately followed the first announcing his death the same day. And now after a separation of 17 years the brothers sleep side by side, the one who would choose a home by some river, the other who soon hoped to realize his golden dreams, both taken from earth in the prime of their manhood and usefulness. Besides the father and mother are three sisters, Mrs. Mabel Harling of Waldo, Mrs. Mira Kennedy of Chicago and Miss Carrie McMurphy at home.

After months of suffering from consumption, Harley R. McMurphy, son of Mr. and Mrs. H.W. McMurphy found relief in death at Norfolk, Va., on Monday morning, Sept. 11th, 1899. Had he lived until November next he would have been thirty-three years of age. Deceased was a bright, steady young man, and that he should be called away at such an early age is a matter of sincere sorrow to many. He was born at Lyndon and spent most of his time on the home farm. He loved to be on the water and spent four or five years on Lake Michigan giving good satisfaction to all he worked for. He leaves to mourn his death, a father, mother and three sisters, Mrs. E. Kennedy, Mrs. H. Harling, Miss Carrie McMurphy and one brother, John, and many friends. The remains of Mr. McMurphy came to Waldo on the Thursday evening train and were taken to the residence of his parents where the funeral was held on Saturday morning at 11 o'clock under the Masonic order. The Masons with whom the deceased was an eminent member were well represented from Plymouth and other parts of the county. The remains were followed to Winooski cemetery by a large concourse of friends and acquaintances. At the grave the Masons performed another of their services and the body was lowered into the grave, the last resting place well covered with beautiful flowers. The pall bearers were H.G. Ford, M. Andrus, Peter Getrick, W.W. Ford, E. Roice and P. Wightman.

It is our painful duty to record the death of another of the old pioneer settlers of the county, in the person of Mrs. Anne McBride, who died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. James Loftus at Forest Junction, {?} on the 5th inst., after a brief illness.

Deceased, whose maiden name was McCormack, was born in Cavan county, Ireland, in 1829. At the age of nine years she came with her parents to America and settled near Utica, N.Y., where in 1848 she was married to Philip McBride, who died on Mar. 20, 1874. Mr. McBride was born in the town of Cahir-na-Cross, Meath county, Ireland, in 1820. In 1859, she, with her husband and children came to Wisconsin and settled on a farm in the town of Scott, in this county, where she continued to reside up to four years ago. In the family were ten children, seven of whom survive her, two children having died in infancy and one, a son about ten years ago. Those living are John and Thomas of Chicago, Owen and Michael in North Dakota, Mrs. James Loftus of Forest Junction, Mrs. Bart Donahue of Mitchell and Miss Alice of Chicago. All of the children, except Owen, were present at the funeral. Fifteen grandchildren also survive her.

The funeral was held from Mitchell church Tuesday. The remains were laid at rest in the adjoining cemetery. The funeral cortege was the largest that approached the Mitchell church in many years, showing the esteem in which she was held by her neighbors and those who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. Requiem high mass was celebrated by Father Burke, who in his sermon paid a glowing tribute to the Christian character, the moral worth and the charitable and virtuous life of the deceased. She was an ardent and devout member of the church, one who lived up to its teachings and by precept and example led her children to follow in her footsteps to become honored citizens and Christian men and women, one who in memory they revere and during their lives can call her blessed.

The pall bearers were John Lindsay, Geo. Lindsay, James Stokes, Peter Murphy, Andrew McDonnell, and Thomas Heraty. The funeral was in charge of T.F. Franey and E. O'Connell.

At 6 o'clock Sunday afternoon, March 9th, 1913, the eternal spirit of Agnes Murray took its flight to heavenly realms at her home in Fond du Lac, where she had been for some time, being ill with tuberculosis. The young lady always bore her suffering with a Christian fortitude, ever remembering that Christian admonition that "He that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, saith Our Lord."

Miss Murray was born in the town of Mitchell, this county and lived there until about three years ago, when she moved with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Murray, to Plymouth, residing on Hein avenue until nearly a year ago, when the family moved to Fond du Lac.

Requiem high mass was celebrated at St. Patrick's church, Fond du Lac, the celebrant being her cousin, Rev. Father Reilly. The remains were then brought to this city on the 11:30 o'clock train, thence by carriage to St. Michael's church, Mitchell, where Rev. Cosgrove, their pastor who accompanied the family here from Fond du Lac, spoke feelingly of the Christian virtues possessed by the deceased. The remains were interred by the side of her four sisters and one brother, who preceded her in death, all of whom died of the same disease.

Deceased is survived by her parents, three sisters, Katherine and Regina, teaching at Henry, S.Dak., who arrived home about a week previous to her death, and Collette, who is attending school at Fond du Lac. The sympathy goes out to the afflicted family in their great bereavement.

The sad news came to Cascade on Thursday that Mrs. John Murray of Fond du Lac passed over the river to her heavenly home on Wednesday, January 20, 1915. Mrs. Murray's social qualities made her dear to those who knew her best. She was a loving wife, an affectionate mother and a good neighbor, loved and respected by all who knew her.

Mrs. Murray was born sixty-five years ago in the town of Mitchell and lived there until a few years ago. She and family moved to Plymouth, and from there they moved to Fond du Lac where she died. She is survived by her husband, three daughters and three sisters, Mrs. John {?}ry, Mrs. John Kelley of Cascade, Mrs. Chiel of Osceola, Fond du Lac county, one brother, Thomas O'Reilly, a policeman of Green Bay.

The remains of Mrs. Murray and her relatives came on the Saturday morning train to Campbellsport and from there were taken to St. Michael's church in Mitchell where the funeral was held at twelve o'clock, Rev. Father Hoog of Cascade, officiating.

The casket was nicely covered with choice flowers from kind hands. The pall bearers were relatives and as follows: Messrs. Lawrence O'Reilly, John O'Reilly, James Gill, Edward Dunn, E.E. Gunn and Johnny O'Reilly. The funeral was largely attended. The remains of Mrs. Murray were laid at rest in the cemetery adjoining the church beside her three daughters and one son.

With extreme sadness we are obliged to chronicle the death of John Murray and old and esteemed resident for many years of the town of Mitchell this county and also a resident of this city for a few years prior to his moving to Fond du Lac, where his death occurred. After the death of his wife which took place at that city some few years ago, he entered the Boyle Catholic home in Fond du Lac to pass his declining years, after the infirmities of old age compelled him to do so and was an inmate of that institution until it was destroyed by fire the night of February 27th this year, when he was transferred to the home of the aged, where his death occurred.

It seems that after the fire at the Boyle Home he never recovered from the shock he received and his mind had been somewhat affected ever since. On last Wednesday night Mr. Murray retired to his room between 8:30 and 9 o'clock and at about 11:15 the occupant of the next room called the Janitor and stated that she heard the window of Mr. Murray's room raise and then heard a crash. The Janitor, together with Mrs. Mona Nickel, Matron of the home, entered Mr. Murray's room and found the window open and the occupant gone. They then repaired to the yard below, when they found his body lying on a board walk directly under the window from which he jumped. Whether he had been sleeping or not is unknown, but when picked up he wore his night clothes, also his coat and shoes. He was unconscious when found and remained in that condition until his demise. His injuries consisted of a broken hip and a fractured skull, medical aid was summoned immediately but his injuries proved to be fatal and the efforts of the physicians were of no avail.

Mr. Murray was 78 years old and was born in Ireland and came to the town of Mitchell when a very young man, living there continuously until about ten years ago when he moved with his family to this city, later moving to Fond du Lac, where he resided until his death. He was married to Miss Mary O'Rielly{sic} about 45 years ago. Several children were born to the couple, nearly all of whom passed away in their youth, only three daughters survive, who are; Katie, Collette and Regina, who are all teaching school in Montana. Michael Murray of Mitchell is a brother of the deceased. The funeral was held Thursday with services at St. Patrick's church at Fond du Lac and the remains were brought from that city and all that was mortal of Mr. Murray was consigned to the earth from whence it came, in St. Michael's cemetery, town of Mitchell, beside the remains of his wife and children who preceded him in death several years ago. A host of friends extend a sincere condolence in thew loss of their father who has passed to his eternal reward.
