Galligan, Puebo, Col., Mrs. J. J. O'Donnell, Denver, Col., Mrs. John Tooley, this city, Phil Galligan, Lawler, Misses Bridget, Margaret and Thresa, all of this city, and P.J. of Washington D.C. This mother gave her best to the world and her children rose up and called her blessed. A family of splendid men and women wearing honors, some of them, all wearing honors of character and worth that challenge admiration. She was a charming woman, graceful and sweet in her home, strong and useful in society and guided her children in the paths of usefulness with love and skill that gave the trend of usefulness to their lives and [illegible]brightness of her own character in them and their children. She adhered through life to the teaching of the Catholic church and served God in a practical womanly way that makes the world better for her having lived in it. The funeral was held today from St. Joseph's Church, the pastor Rev. R. Slattery officiating and the interment was in the cemetery of the Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel at Lawler.
