She had been hospitalized since May 11. Mrs. Martin, the former Margaret Mulligan, was born Jan. 31, 1886 in Minnesota and came here before the turn of the century with her parents. She and the late Gov. Martin, who died here Aug. 11, 1955, at the age of 69, were married in Spokane in 1907. They were divorced in 1943. Martin, the former mayor of Cheney and head of the F.M.
