Mrs. Mary Kelly, an aged and highly esteemed resident of Pulaski township, died Tuesday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. John Shower on the Pulaski and Edenburg roads. Dissolution was caused by kidney trouble from which Mrs. Kelly had been suffering for the past five weeks. She was 82 years of age. Mrs. Kelly's life was unique in that she was born and raised and died on the same farm. Nearly all of her life was spent on it. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Robinson, early settlers of the vicinity and was the last of her family. Until a year ago last May when her husband, Samuel Kelly, died she resided three miles west of the farm on which she died, but after the death of her husband went to make her home with her daughter. Mrs. Kelly was a member of the Mahoning United Methodist Church.
Interment was made in Mahoning Cemetery.
