MINERAL POINT WISCONSIN, THURSDAY, g.
Death Of A. w. Shea.

A mantle of gloom was cast Ger this
community Thanksgiving day by the
telegraphic announcement that Bert
She's died early that morning in Mil
waukee hospital, where he had been OPP
Grated on for appendicitis.
Avert w. Shea was born on the 10th
of October, 1879, in the town of Blan-
chardville and soon after came with his
parents to reside in Mineral Point. He
was married on the 23d of January,
1902 to Miss Rebeckah Vickerman of
this city. On the 18th of March, 1902,
they removed to Milwaukee where they
resided until death summoned Bert to
join the silent majority at the age
of q years, one month and 10 days.
Bert was an Industrious young man
of good habits, and at the time of his
death, because of efficiency and RELIABLE
ity, held good position with the Wis
consin Telephone Co., Milwaukee. He
leaves to mourn his departure his wife,
a three-year-old daughter, his mother
and sister, the latter living in Illinois.
Their loss is unreasonable.
The funeral took place in this city
Sunday afternoon from the home of the
wife''s parents with interment in Grace
land cemetery, and was largely attend
ed. The Foresters attended in a body.
Rev. w. T. Walker conducted the SER
vices.

Christmas Comes ApsCe.

Thanksgiving over, Christmas is so
nearly here that to people who stop to
think of it the realization is startling.
1t is somewhat difficult to adjust ones
self to the closeness of the great holiday
of the year, for there has as yet been
no snow fall here of staying qualities,
and Christmas is usually preceded by a
considerable installment of winter.
This years prolonged autumn has
saved hundreds of dollars which under
ordinary circumstances would have been
expended for fuel. 1t enabled the per-
Torrance of great deal of outdoor
work, which also puts money into the
pockets of such people as neel it most.
Undoubtedly there is bound to be a
liberal expenditure upon the celebration
of Christmas, 1906. This will be good
thing for merchants, who are fully
equipped for large holiday trade.

Miss Mary J. Pascoe died at her home
in this city early Friday morning, Nov.
80, 1896. Deceased was born in Mineral
Point the LIST of July, 1S45, and has
ever slnce been resident here. From
early life she was faithful attendant
of the Presbyterian church and Sunday
School, and from the time that society
terminated its existence here she has
beer associated with the M. E. church.
About year ago Miss Pascoe met
with an accidental fall which resulted
in creeping paralysis, from which she
suffered greatly until the hour of her
death. She is survived by one brother,
Arnold, who has been devotedly untir-
ing in caring for the needs and comforts
of his sister throughout her long sick
ness
