    MARGARET HURLBURT MORROW

    Mrs. Margaret Hurlburt Morrow, wife of Federal Judge William W. Morrow, died
early yesterday morning of pneumonia in her apartment at the Hotel St. Francis,
San Francisco. Mrs. Morrow was born in Maquoketa, Iowa, October 31, 1847. She
crossed the plains with her father and mother in 1852. Her father, a Methodist
minister reached Placerville, California with his family and founded the first
church there in 1852. His itinerary as a preacher took him through the mining
regions, Grass Valley, Downieville and other towns. In 1865, in Santa Rosa,
where she was attending school, Margaret met and married William Morrow, a young
Santa Rosa teacher. She was the seventeen. In the years that followed, with her
husband's rising career as a lawyer and jurist, Mrs. Morrow became a leader in
civic and social activities in San Francisco and Washington, D. C., while her
husband was a member of congress.

    Mrs. Morrow is survived by her husband and three children, William H. Morrow
of San Francisco, Mrs. Maude Fechteler, widow of the late Admiral Fechteler, U.
S. Navy and Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of H. L. Roosevelt of Paris, France.

    Funeral services will be held Saturday morning at 10 o'clock in the Gray and
Company chapel. Interment at the Cypress Lawn Cemetery will be private.
