INKS. u. L. WEIGH
DIES, TUESDAY
From Wednesdays daily.


Mrs. Hannah Humphreyville WEIGH,
wife Of the late Colonel David E.
Welch, passed away at her home on
Sixth avenue Tuesday afternoon about
four-thirty after an illness of but a
day. At seven o'clock yesterday
morning, she called the neighbors,
telling them that she was i'll, but dur
ing the day her mind remained per-
factly clear and she was conscious
up TO the last few minutes. The
cause of her death was heart disease.
Mrs. WEIGH was born in Medina,
Ohio, ON April third, 70 years ago.
She was highly educated and taught
for a number of years before her mar
rage, which took place in Ohio,
Colonel WEIGH engaging in the mer-
camille business in Medina.
In 1867, they came to Wisconsin,
locating on a farm in the town of
DeIton in his county and nine years
later, moved TO Baraboo which place
they made their home thereafter.
About 1895, her husband was cashier
for Sergeant-at- Arms, Colonel Henry
CassOn, of the lower house at Wash
ington and for several years, Colonel
and Mrs. We.ch made Washington
their hoIAe. Mrs. Welch enjoyed their
stay there to the utmost and was
regular visitor at the sessions of
the legislature. She became acquaint-
ed with many of the prominent men
of Washington Of that day and dur
ing late years il was her pleasure to
hear or read of their activities. On
their return from Washington, they
lived a quiet life at the home on
Sixth avenue,
Since the death of her husband,
which occurred on September 10,
1920, Mrs. WEIGH has lived alone here
with the exception of one winter
which she spent in Ohio with rela-
uyes. Although living alone, she
never appeared to be lonely but was
quite content with her memories and
the friendships which to her were
very dear. Mrs. WEIGH was probably
better informed on present day af-
Ialrs than the majority OF women. She
had an excellent memory and there
were few current events with which
she was not familiar. Tuesday, al
though very i'll, she asked for the news
in the daily paper and showed an in
terest in lie sending of a United
States wacship to China
She was in every sense wonder
full woman of the old school, educated,
refined, and beloved of all with whom
she came in contact
The only relatives who survive are
a sister of the deceased, Mrs. Percy
Brainard, and nephew, Samuel
Brainard, of Medina, Ohio, whose
arrivals are expected tonight.
