Mrs. Laura McGrath Dead.
Mrs. Laura McGrath, wife of Mr. James C. McGrath, died at her home, near Bradley, yesterday [December 7, 1911] morning, aged about 50 years.
Mrs. McGrath had been in delicate health from liver affection for some years, and her death was not wholly unexpected. She was a lady highly esteemed in her section and her death is generally regretted.
Mrs. McGrath, who was Miss Laura Fair, had been twice married, her first husband being the late Wesley Leadman. Of this union several children survive. She had been re-married to Mr. McGrath only two or three years, and of this unity there was no issue.
We have been unable to learn of the funeral arrangements, further than the burial will be in Bradley churchyard of the United Brethren, of which religious society she was a sincere member.
(Thanks to L.K. Perry who sent me Laura's obituary to be included on her memorial page.)
