      Mrs. John Deegan died at the family residence this city, Wednesday, February 5, at 10 o'clock a.m., of heart trouble. She was born in Ireland, and at about ten years of age, she came to this country in 1856, the family living near Freeport, Ill., moving from there to Darlington, Wisconsin, in 1861. In 1871, she was married to John Deegan, and in 1875 they moved to Platte county. She leaves one brother, living in St. Joseph, Mo., her husband, three sons and three daughters. She had always enjoyed good health during the twenty-seven years of her residence on Shell creek near Platte Center. The sudden death came as a shock to Mrs. Deegan's friends, who sympathize with the husband and children in their sore affliction. Two daughters from Red Lodge, Montana, arrived Saturday. Funeral services were held Sunday at 1:30 at the Catholic church.
      Misses Margaret and Lilian Deegan of Red Lodge, Montana, came home to attend the funeral of their mother, Mrs. John Deegan, who was buried Sunday afternoon.
