MARY ATHAY
Mary Athay, aged 62 years, after a brave struggle against the
disease died Tuesday evening at 11 pm at the home of her daughter Mrs. John A
Wallis. She had been suffering with a severe cold for several weeks previous to
an attack of flu, when she was compelled to go to bed. The evening of her death
life was finally taken from her because of a weakened heart.

Silas L Wright were the speakers. Mary Athay was born in Kaysville Utah, June 22, 1860 and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William B Lindsay deceased.
