MBS. KATHERENE HOLLY
PASSES AWAY AFTER A
LINGERING ILLNESS
This morning at C o'clock at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Joseph
Novotny, in the west part of the city,
Mrs. Katherine Holly passed away
after an illness of some months' dura
tion, from a complication due to her
advanced years, being at the time of
her death some 74 years of age. Mrs.
Holly had been a resident of Platts
mouth for the past twenty-two years,
having come here from Racine, Wis
consin, in 1893, and has since that
time made her home here continu
ously, where her children had come
several years before. Mrs. Holly was
born in Austria, and was reared to
womanhood in her native province of
Moravia, and was married there to
Joseph Holly, who died in that coun
try in 1874, and the widow, with her
little family came to America in 1883,
settling first in Wisconsin, where the
family resided for a short time ,and
the children then came west to Platts
mouth, where they were joined by the
mother.
The death of Mrs. Holly came as a
severe blow to those who knew her
best and they will regret greatly to
learn of her passing, and while this
worthy lady was not widely acquaint
ed, to those who knew her best she
was a most tender mother and kindly
friend. Mrs. Holly leaves to mourn
her death three children, William
Holly and Mrs. Joseph Novotny of
this city and Frank Holly of Omaha,
all of whom were present when the
final summons came. She also leaves
one sister, Mrs. Joseph Svoboda, to
mourn her loss.
The arrangements for the funeral
have not as yet been completed, but
it will probably take place Wednes
day morning.

Yesterday morning M. E. Man
rpeaker was able to return home after

pects to be around as usual.
