Mrs. Catherine o'Meara.
The angel of death has again visited
a home in our midst and claimed Mrs
Catherine O'Meara, who passed from
this life at 2:2O p. M, Feb. 2, 1911,
after four weeks illness of pne,l-
mOnia. Catherine McGinn was born
in Carrolton county, Canada, April s,
1916. At an early age she moved with
her parents to Clinton county, Iowa.
She was married there to Patrick
O'Meara in 1867, and continued to re-
side at that place until 1880, when
they moved to farm in Shelby coun.
ty, where her husband died Feb. IA,
1904. Six years ago she, with her fam
lily, moved to Dow City, where she has
since resided. One daughter and six
sons survive her, being Mary, James,
Peter, Elias and John, who live in
Dow City, and Frank and Clarence,
who live on the farm. She also leaves
three brothers, Peter and Daniel Nc
CHM, of Charlotte, Iowa, and Michael
McGinn, in Clinton county. She was
aged IS years, 8 months and "a days
at the time of her demise. The fun
eral was held at Earling Saturday
morning and she was laid to rest be-
side her husband in the Earling Gene
terry. We are told by those who knew
her that she was an exceptionally
Wight "ouiOA, q NCIy uCSOlSu IlOllSl
and a splendid neighbor and it may
we'll be said none knew her but to
love her." 1t was remarked many
times during her illness that children
could do no more nor be more attent-
i've and devoted than were hers. They
have indeed lost a priceless treasure.
Much sympathy is expressed for those
who are left to mourn the departed
mother. Relatives from a distance
who attended the funeral were her
brother, Daniel McGinn. of Charlotte,
and Kate, Alice and Frank O'Meara,
of Sioux City and Minnie Hawn, of
Otto. Iowa. God rest her soul in peace.
