OLD SETTLER DEAD M-sK Karmin, Who Came to Arkansas in Stage Coach With Bishop
 Ryrne, Is Dead.
ONE OF FIRST CATHOLIC TEACHERS
Died on Seventy-seventh Birthday
 of Heart Disease.

Little Rock.-After long and event ful life, which was devoted largely to the furtherance of the work of the Catholic church in Arkansas, Mrs. Elizabeth Farmin, widow of Arlow Farmin, is dead at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Warren Baldwin, PAPA Louisiana street.
 The story of Mrs. Farmin's life is one of unusual interest. It is replete with interesting incidents, many of which are closely associated with the early history of Arkansas and the ad- vent of the Catholic church into this territory.
 She was born February 2S, 1880, at Castlewellan, County Down, Ireland At the age of 17 years she left her home, in company with her two broth CTS, for the United States. They made the trip across the ocean on the same vessel, but upon landing at New York City it was found that they would have to separate for short time Before parting, however, they agreed to meet at certain place at a given hour.
 In some manner the girl failed to meet her two brothers. Evidently a misunderstanding existed as to the

place of meeting For days the girl paced the streets of New York in search of the two brothers whom she was destined never to see nor hear of again during her entire life.
 She finally gave up the search in despair and, having no friends to whom she could go, decided to appeal to the Catholic church, of which she was member. It was then that she met Bishop Byrne, who was prepar- ing to move to Little Rock.
 She decided to become a Catholic teacher and shortly afterward left, in company with Bishop Byrne, for this city, which, at that time, was a small village. The entire trip, as far as Napoleon, Ark, was made overland in a stage coach. From Napoleon to Little Rock the journey was made in a small canoe.
 A short time later Bishop Byrne was established as the first bishop of the was then composed of Arkansas, Tex as and Indian Territory. Mrs. Far min was made one of the instructors in the Catholic school, then located on the corner of Second and Center streets. She was one of the first Cath olic teachers in this territory.
 Mrs. Farmin remained in Little Rock the rest of her life In 1850 she was married to Arlow Farmin. The latter was also closely associated with the early history of Little Rock. He served as deputy state auditor for a period of twenty-one years. He died in May, 1887.
 During her residence in this city Mrs. Farmin made many attempts to locate her two brothers whom she had lost in New York. Her efforts were of no avail, however, as she never heard of either one One of the two brothers, Mark McIver, was a physi- clan, while the other had prepared himself to be an attorney. On the t tzSe4day that President Abraham Lin coin was assassinated a man was shot in the Palmer House, in Chicago. A PAyoiSioh Uy IhO AiciiO VI Dr. Mark McIver was called to attend the mans injuries and Mrs. Farmin always entertained the belief that he was her brother. She made several at tempts to ascertain whether or not her belief was correct, but for some reason she was never able to gain any information on this point.
 Mrs. Farmin died on her 77th birth day anniversary. Her death was the result of heart trouble and old age and was not unexpected
