Many people in this city will bear
with great sorrow the announcement
of the death of Catherine Elizabeth
O'Ma11ey, wife of Owen O'Ma11ey,
which occurred early this morning at
the family residence on Third street.
She had been in critical condition
for some three weeks and death came
as sweet release to her sufferings,
which had been patiently borne. At
the time of her death her husband and
children were with her about the bed
side.
Catherine Elizabeth Fo1len O'Ma11ey
was one of the best known ladies of
the city. She was born in Kenosha
February II, 1850, and for half CEN
fury she had lived here. In 1872 she

Social aatnering AZ bristol vail.

Saturday evening, March 18th, about
lis guests from the village of Bristol
and its surrounding territory, to the
extent of from two to three miles,
were royalty entertained at Bristol
hall, by six ladies and five gentlemen,
consisting of F. r. Lavey and wife,
John Shot1iff and wife, George Wi1let
and wife. Fred Shot1iff, Polly Evans,
and Carrie Murdoch. of Bristol, and
Frank Fox and wife, of Pikeville;
who termed themselves 1.-THE Jones
Family One needed only to be
there, to be assured that everybody
present enjoyed themselves to the
fullest extent
Games of various kinds were placed
promiscuous1y around the spacious
hail, giving everybody space and OPP
portunity to engage in the evenings
pleasures.
About 9 O'Clock the stage curtain
rose upon the "first scene'' which
was a dining room, with tables boun-
tifu1ly spread for about fifty persons,
at which each guest did ample justice
to the many courses served, from the
substantial to the dainty and orna-
mental.
By the display of fruits and flowers,
one might have imagined himself or
herself in Florida or Southern Ca1ifor-
MIA. The hosts and hostesses, as well
as many of the guests, wore decora-
tons Of green ribbons and shamrock,
in honor of Saint Patrick. Each time
the curtain rose the succeeding scenes
which it would be difficult to surpass
in quantity, quality or the skill in
which it was served.
One of the interesting features OF
the event, was, upon receipt of the in.
vitations, the guessing who "The
Jones Family" consisted of, and many
of the guess did not know by whom
they were to be entertained, until their
arrival at the hall.
A week ago nearly the same company
were entertained at the same place by
VIM. Bacon and wife, Wn1. Turner anC
wife and Wells Curtis, which was a1sC
greatly enjoyed by ali present.
Others have pleasantly entertained
their friends at their homes, while th'
societies of Royal Neighbors, Modern
Woodmen and Masons have not beer
behind by any means, in that line.
All in all, Notwithstanding som,
sorrows and unp1easantness that hav'
entered our midst as UNBIDDEN guests
which follow each one of us more O.
less along our line of 1ife's duties, thu
winter of 100000 has afforded Bristo
society many happy social reunions.
