Obituary
Mrs. Margaret Manley. Died, at her home in this city, on Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, Mrs. Margaret Manley, aged 77 years/ Deceased was born in the Isle of Man. She came to America fifty years ago with her husband Solomon Manley. They settled in Mineral Point. The husband died thirty-one years ago. With but a single exception - a visit to her daughter in Iowa - Mrs. Manley was a constant resident here up to her death. By her Christian faith and motherly kindness she won the love and esteem of those amongst whom she has lived for nearly half a century, and she will be missed by all who knew her. The passer by will miss her amongst her flowers, which she so fondly loved. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, with services at the house, conducted by Rev. F. W. Straw, after which the body was laid to rest in the family lot in the city Cemetery.
