MRS, SLATTERY
PIONEER HERE, ,
PASSES AWAY
Resident of City for Half Cen
tury Passes Away After
Long Illness
SAW MANY CHANGES HERE

Mrs. M. P. Slattery, for half cen
|'tury a resident Of Bismarck, passed
away last evening at 1850 at her
home, 522 Second street. While her
illness was of long duration, her death
comes as a shock to the community.
Mrs. 'Slattery during her long life
in the city was beloved by all who
kenw her and will be mourned by a
host of friends and neighbors. Her
life was beautiful one Of service
and love. Each day saw some kindly
deed done to some one In sorrow or
distress,
All during her suffering she was
cheerful and patient and always had a
pleasant greeting for all who called,
also showing unequal consideration
for those about her.
Mrs. Slattery was born in 1850 in
Cottersburg, Pa. She was the widow
of the late M. P. Slattery, and came
to Bismarck in 1873.
Many changes have taken place dur
ing her residence here and she had
seen the little frontier village Of
Bismarck grow to prosperous city.
Like other pioneers she helped build
the structure of community life. Her
neighborliness extended over the en-
tire town and Mrs. Slattery's kindness
and charity were known to all in that
earlier day when we were more de.
pendent upon one another
Those surviving are Daniel M. Slat-
terry, Mrs. Marie de Zychluiski, Fan
ny Slattery, Ann Slattery; eleven
grand children, and several brothers
and sisters.
Mrs. Slattery was member Of St.
Mary's Pro-Cathedral and funeral ser
vices will be held from the church at
10 O'clock Monday morning.
