Mrs. M. Foley, in Akron, aged 27 years, 7 months and 25 days, of cancer of the stomach. Last December she was taken ill and submitted to an operation at St. Joseph's hospital in Sioux City in February. Her health improved for
a time thereafter, but she steadily declined for the past three months.
Bridgetta Foley was born November 28, 1881, at Maurice, Iowa, and in 1882 came with her parents to Johnson township, Plymouth county, which was true family home for many years. There on February 6, 1901, she was united in marriage with Frank Hoffman, whom she had known since childhood.
Besides the bereaved husband there survive three children. Francis, Basil and Rose: also the mother, Mrs. M. Foley, of this city; three sisters and four brothers, Mrs. James Gale, east of Akron: Mrs. Wm. Welch, of Westfield; Mrs. Ed. Byrnes, of Brookings, SD., and Thomas, Michael, James and Patrick Foley, of Akron.
A large concourse of friends paid tribute to her memory Saturday morning when the funeral rites were conducted in St Patrick's Catholic church by Rev. D. K. Hurley. Interment was made in Calvary cemetery beside her departed
sister, Mrs. Ed. Hoffman.
