In Memoriam.

Died, at her home, on the morning of
 July Both, 1895, near Pantano, Arizona,
 in the 59th year of her age, Mrs. Anne
 Elizabeth Denton O'Leary, after brief
 but painful sickness, superinduced by
 billousness.
 The lady was born in the beautiful Genesee valley. in the State of New York, close to historic Cooperssown, and | belonged to the well-known pioneer fam 7 lily of her maiden name. She was graduate of the Genesee institute, ard studied under special professors after wards, ;n order to sstIsfy a craving in the realms of exact science. AS
 mathemsticisn-ln the pure mathemat- ics-she had, perhaps, not an equal in western America. h the tremendous and sublime depths of astronomy she i was a constant and faithful student to
 the hour of her death, and tbe sublimity attached to the science, she WAS never
 weary of elucidating, by chart, instru-
 ment, and geometry. This was done in her own home, in her own private study, and only to amuee her family and few select friends at rare intervals. Modesty. culture and refinement, with the gentle retiring characteristics inseparable from those qualities, were the crowping glory of her noble womanhoo6. She was a patriot, and an ardent admirer of her own lovely beautiful America, and of all there was of grace, simplicity, beauty, patriotism ard culture in it; despiser of shams, a lover of liberty. She ex-
 emplified in her own character all that
 was noble in true American woman.
 She was protestant lady, while all
 her immediate household were of diff
 ferent creed, and to her eternal honor 1t must be said, that no Jarripg element ever crept into the family circle through any
 frivolous difference of that kind.
 Honored and loved by her own faln- lily, she passes away from her loved circle, and leaves void that time cau- not replace. This loving tribute to her memory is paid by her dearest friend on earth, and she rests far from the historic scenes of her early girlhood, by the banks of the Santa Cruz, to await the resurrection, and with sublime confi- dence in the universal Lord and builder of worlds, that she will be found worthy on that great momentuous day to eI joy the rewards of pure and noble life. May her native earth rest lightly upon her. and may her pure spirit find peace and rest in God.
 I cannot close thls tribute of affection, without acknowledging the kind and tender courtesies extended to the lady and her family, by Mrs. Mary Anna Shaw, MT. J. $. Noble, Mir. and Mrs. Judson Moores of Pantano, the Rever- end Father Girard of Tucson, and the kind and gentle Reverend Doctor Will | son; and last, but not the least, MT. 1 Peter J. Lonergan. the very accomplish ed undertaken of Tucson, who left noth- ing undone to assuage pain. and render | every assistance where delicacy and | duty required it.
 Among all the friends of the departed | lady who paid the last tribute of honor | to her, l cannot forget Doctor and Mrs. | Odermstt, Mrs. P. B. IAgler, and a i young lady who was introduced to ma by the Rev. pr. Wilson, but whose name | canrot recall. To enc and all, I ex- tend my sincere thanks, and also, to MT. | Joseph s. Hopley, my dear good neigh Dor. FLORENCE O'LEAKY.
