MRS. BEAN
 On Sunday, March 15th, at 8 p.m., occurred the death of Mrs. Thomas Bean
at her home in Washington Lake township.  The announcement of her sad and
untimely end came as a tremendous shock to the people of this community.
 In the very midst of health and happiness in one brief moment she was
snatched from all that was near and dear to her and all her hopes were
frustrated by the icy grasp of death.
 The end came as the result of an appoletic stroke.  Medical assistance was
hastly summoned and everything that human skill could devise was resorted
to in a vain attempt to save her, but it was plainly evident that her
life’s forces were slowly ebbing away, her spirit taking its departure at
the time above stated.
 Deceased was born in Ironwood, Michigan, Oct. 15, 1863.  She immigrated to
Green Isle in the year 1885 and was married to her surviving husband, Sept.
18, 1887.
 Besides her husband Mrs. Bean is survived by eight children, three sons
and five daughters, all of whom were present at the interment.  A large
concourse of friends accompanied her remains to their last resting place, a
fitting tribute to the high esteem in which she was held by all with whom
she came in contact.
 The funeral was held from St. Brendon’s church, the Rev. J. J. Hand
officiating.  Among those attending the funeral from abroad were:  Mr. J.
W. Healey, Medford, N. Dak.; Mesdames M. A. Linton, Wm. Harding, Nels
Gerald and Mr. Ed. Ryan, Minneapolis; Mr. and Mrs. T. Whetston and Mr. adn
Mrs. Daniel Whetson, Franklin; Mr. and Mrs. P. W. Murry and Thomas Bean,
St. Paul; Mr. and Mrs. P. O’Connell and Miss Bessie Murry, Glencoe; J. J.
Fahey, Norwood.
 The bereaved husband and family have the undivided sympathy of the entire
community.  -  Green Isle Record.
