FITZGERALD.
Wednesdsy afternoon, May 7, 1913, at
1:15 o'clock, (here passed away Margaret
Emma Lawrence, wife of Edward vV.
Fitzgerald, of Kane, Pa. Tbe deceased
bad entered the hospital at ber borne
Monday evening and submitted to an
operation so trivial in its nature tbat sbe
did not think it worth while to mention
it to ber most Intimate friends. Com
plications arose, however, which ren
dered ber condition extremely critical
snd her husband and parents were hastily
summoned to her bedside, and tbey were
with her till tbe end came, wbicb was
peaceful and painless. Dealb was caused
by exhaustion trom hemorsges, which
baffled the best medical skill.
Few deaths have shooked and saddened
so many hearts In this oommunity wbere
tbe deceased was reared to young woman
hood, or at Kane wbere the past six or
seven years of ber life were spent. As a
Tloneata girl Emma early won and re
tained tbe admiration and eateein of all
by ber modest, yet cheery, lovable ways,
and In womanhood and motherhood tbe
beauty and grace of her character con
tlnued to grow ever more charming un
til her list of loyal friends waa bounded
only by tbe circle of ber acquaintance
ships. Upon the parents, brothers, sis.
ters and near relatives this death falli
heavily, but to tbe devoted busband thus
suddenly bereft of his sweet, loving com
panion, tbe blow cornea with crushing
sorrow, and In this, the darkest hour of
bis life, the deepest sympathy of a com
munity which feels a share In tbe great
loss, goes out to him in heartfelt tender
ness and sincerity.
Born at Heurys Mills, In Warren coun
ty, Jan. 14, 1877, while ber parents were
temporary residents there, but who re
turned lo Tionesta a few weeks after tbat

very large ooncourse or relatives, friends
aud former neighbors. Rev, Mr. Sutton,
assisted by Rev. II. A. Bailey of the Tio

denly taken touched a sympathetic chord j
In Ibe hearts of all who beard it. Tbe

Lizzie Randall, Mra. Alice Swanson,
Mra. H. A. Bailey, Misses Kate Arner
and Katharine Osgood, Mr. Jay N. Bank
