OF MRS. MARTHA PATRICK
A Visitor and Resident of Phoenix for
Thirty Years Tuesday.

Mrs. Martha Patrick died Tuesday
night at $50 at the home of her son
Herbert r. Patrick. 1880 East Adams
street Death was sudden though
Mrs. Patrick had been in i'll health
for some time and had been rendered
still more feeble by a fall she recently
sustained. She had had for years
an affection of the heart, which was
the direct cause of her death
In the afternoon, i'm the absence Of
her son, her companion observed that
she had little to say. though she did
not appear to be i'm great pain. A
little after eight o'clock she cIutched
at her heart and sank into uncun-
sciousness from which she was not
aroused Mr.. Patrick arrived little
before nine but his mother was dead.
Funeral arrangements have not been
announced but the body will no doubt
be taken 60 Los Angeles for inter
ment beside that of her husband. who
died there thirteen years ago
Mrs. Patrick was almost eighty
years of age. She was born at Barre,
Mass. She was sister of the late
Captain w A Hancock and she first
came To Phoenix in 1850 to visit him
and her son who was already estab-
hshed here. She returned later ac-
companied by her husband and after
that was a frequent visitor until four
years ago she took up her permanent
residence in Phoenix. She lived for
some time in Des Moines and for
four or five years i'm the nineties I'm
Los Angeles. She is survived only by
her son.
Mrs Patrick came of pioneer stock
She was of the famous Lee family
which settled in Massachusetts in
1886. Her husband was also a de
scendant of John Lee, the foremost
of that family in America

Gently inherited said onesixth undi-

A bachelor old and cranky

His toes with the govt were aching,
And his face was overspread with

No little ones shouts disturbed him,
From noises the house was free;
In fact from the attic to cellar
Twas quiet as quiet could be.
No medical aid was lacking;
The servants answered his ring,
Respectfully heard his orders,
And supplied him with everything
But still here was something wanting
Something he couldn't command!

The touch of a gentle hand.

And he rang for the hireling nurse;
Well, marriage may be a failure,
