In last weeks issue of the Tribune
twas stated that Mrs. Margaret
lrehan, formerly Margaret Man
died on claim near Wolf Point,
Montana, and left surviving her two
boys, twelve and ten years Of age re-

upon more reliable information it was
found that Mrs. Hanrehan's two BIO. 8

Village of Wolf P pint, where she was
having her boys attend school.
Mrs. Hanrehan formerly of this

the time of her death. She was born
and grew to womanhood on the Man

married to the late Edward Hanre-

with her husband until the time of his
death on farm in Synnes township,
which was owned by her and her chill
dren at the time of her death. About
three years ago she went to Montana
with her sons and took a homestead
of 800 acres, spending the summers
on the claim and the winters in the
town where the boys attended school.
She was ready to prove up on her
claim in June, but under the provi-
sions of the homestead law it reverts
Immediately to her sons without any
further action except proof of heir
ship.
Mrs. Hanrehan was seriously ill
with fever for several weeks past,
during which time her mother was
with her. She had the best medical
attendance procurable to stop the
hand of death, which crossed the
threshold of her home Monday morn
ing, June 9Th, in the presence of her
two sons and her mother. When

sisters and relatives, among whom
were Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hanrehan,
T. ]. Hanrehan and Mrs. James Ma
loney, of Morris. Her remains were
taken to Savage, Minnesota, from
which place services were held at the
Catholic church and the body inferred
beside the body of her husband, the
late Edward Hanrehan.
She left surviving her, two sons,
Frank and Emmett Hanrehan, her
mother, Mrs. Honora Mangan; her
brother T. J. of this city and her
half brother D. ]. Mangan, of Sky
komish, WASH, and five sisters, Mrs.
Mary Macy, Prior Lake, MINI. Mrs.
Josie Irene Jordan, of Seattle; Mrs.
Nora O'Connell, of St. Paul; Mrs.
Eva Simones, of Prior Lake, Mime
sofa and Miss Helen Mangan who is

Subsequent to the death of Mrs.
Hanrehan's husband, she and her
children lived for two years with her
mother, Mrs. Honora Mangan in this
city and at the time Of her death de-
ceased was member of the local
lodge of Royal Neighbors and was
we'll known to the people of this vi
cinity, respected and admired by all

er and kind neighbor and died as she
had patiently and bravely.
The people of Morris and the
many friends and neighbors Of de-
