MARGARET OF NEW ORLEANS.
The First Monument Erected to a Woman
in This Country.

The First Monument Erected to a Woman
in This Country.
New Orleans claims the distinction of
having been the first city in this country to
to erect a monument to a woman. "Marga-
ret of New Orleans" made her fortune out
of the baking business. says the Picaynne.
She came with her husband, Michael
Haughery, md children to this country
from Ireland. Death bereft her OF her fam.
lily, and she was left alone in the world.
Seeking employment, she drifted to New
Orleans, where she entered the service of
the Sisters az dairy maid. Earning a linn
tied amount OF money. she established a
small bakery. This increased unde her
management to wholesale dimensions. She
sent out from her establishment bread carts
chat carried asa free gift to the deserv-
lng poor 3OO loaves of bread daily. Every
thing this woman undertook prospered
greatly.
she could neither read nor write. had an
extremely limited idea of figures, yet she
carried on such an extensive business that
she rolled up n large bank account yearly.
Her appearance in face, form aud dress WAS
unprepossessinR. She was usually clad in a
snort gown OF gray, with a Quaker-like bon
net, and with a coarse rudy face she pre-
sented ANYTHING but a fashionable presence.
Driving through the streets in a clumsy
cart. WIN Her plain costumes, on her err.
rands OF mercy or business, she was never a
subject Of ridicule or derision, but always
OF lespectful Difference; even the street
hoodlum dofed his ragged cap and stood
waiting to serve her. The needs of the
orphan appealed most strongly to her syn-
pathies; especially to those who were faith
erless and motherless by that fatal pesti-
lence, the yellow fever, she gave large
slices of her income, ~
At her death her body lay in state two
days. and was viewed by thousands. The
funeral took place at st. Patrick's church.
and was the largest ever known in the his
tory OF New Orleans. except that of Jeffcr-
son Davis. The procession of carriages Az
tended for miles, and included every reli-
glous order, every civic society, the p,,ssts
clergymen and people of every church and
denomination. with the children from ali
the schools and numerous orphan asylnms
in the city. Old and young, rich and Door
ignorant and wise-all turned ont to dc
honor to the memory of one plain unedn-
Gated woman, for her deeds were great
The whole OF her fortune was bequeatheJ
to the different orphan asylums without re-
gard to faith.
