Death of Mrs. Hugh Keogh.

  Mrs. Annie M. Keogh, wife of Hugh Keogh, the well-known railroad 
contractor, died at her home, at the corner of Vine and Beaver streets, 
at nine o'clock this morning, in the 40th year of her age.  She was 
taken ill between twelve and one o'clock on Tuesday night, with all the 
symptoms of the prevailing influenza, and the disease developed into 
pneumonia, which, in spite of the efforts of the physicians, resulted 
fatally this morning.  Mrs. Keogh was a daughter of the late James 
Coyle, and was born in this city.  She was married to Mr. Keogh in 
December, 1878, and her husband and five children, three boys and two 
girls, survive her.  She was a member of St. Mary's Catholic church.  A 
model wife and mother, devoting her time to the care of her home and 
her family, her death is a sad blow to husband and little ones, who 
have the heart-felt sympathy of the whole community.  The funeral will 
take place on Monday morning, services at St. Mary's church; interment 
at St. Mary's cemetery.
