MRS. C0URTNEY'S DEMISE
7 CAUSED DEEP SORROW
TO HOST OF FRIENDS
High School Principal Nelson
Called to Minneapoli.
by Wife's Illness
Especial to Pioneer)


Bagley, Feb. 3.-Deep was the sor'
row OF the city Of Bagley and com
munity when the, report was given
out, Of the death Of Mrs. George
Courtney, who passed quietly away
last Thursday morning at 1 O'Clock
Mrs. Courtney had been very sick fo1
the last month with bronchial pneu'
monia, and every possible effort was
made to prolong her life.
Mrs. Courtney was born March 4,
1895, at .Huntley, Faribault county.
Mimi, coming here with her parents,
who homesteaded in the town OF
1900. Later they moved to Bagley,
where she attended high school, TAX
ing a prominent part in social life.
In 1912 she was united in marriage
to George B. Courtney. Two children
we're born to this union.
The anxiousness with which the
friends inquired as to her well being
during her sickness, shows plainly
she had many friends. At her bed
side, as her life ebbed and she passed
peacefully into the new life beyond
were her husband and two sons, Har-
vey, aged years, and Robert, aged
3 years, her father and mother, Mr..
and Mrs. w. H. Hill, and her two
brothers, Harold and Floyd.
Funeral services were held Satur-
day at 2 p. m. at the congregational
church, Rev. William w. Dale, from
International Falls, officiating.
