Death of Mrs. Durbin.

Mrs. Mary Isabella Durbin, wife of ex-Alderman Thomas Durbin, died at
2 o'clock Wednesday morning at her residence, Union avenue and Twenty-
fifth street.  Mrs. Durbin's maiden name was Creighton and she was
born and married at St. Augustine, Cambria county.  She was a member
of St. John's Catholic church, a consistent Christian and a very
estimable lady in every respect.  Her disease was consumption and she
had been confined to her bed about one month.  Her husband and three
children survive.  Miss Cecelia, the oldest of the children, about 18
years of age, had been teaching school at St. Augustine, but has been
home since her mother's condition became critical.
