*At the residence of their mother, Mrs. Bridget Sullivan, in the First Ward, Mamie, aged 14 years, on the 13th inst. Mamie was of a robust constitution, and her sickness, the result of a cold, dates back but about three months. It was assumed a dropsical form and soon her case was hopeless. Mamie attended St. Mary's schools and was very proficient in her studied. Mamie was buried on a Tuesday morning, two days after her brother Daniel Sullivan. Both died from consumption.
