KELLY--Bellwood Woman Dies Here - Mrs. Fatha A. Kelly, 67, resident of Bellwood for many years, passed away at 5:30 p.m. yesterday at Lutheran Good Samaritan hospital, where she had been for the last nine weeks. She had suffered from gallbladder trouble, for which she underwent an operation there on Dec. 20, and liver trouble and other complications. She had been ill about five weeks before entering the hospital, and her vitality was at such low ebb that she was unable to respond to treatment. As Miss Fatha Buffalo, she was born on Aug. 21, 1866, at Bloomington, Ind., where she spent the earlier period of her life, and grew to womanhood. In 1883, she was united in marriage to George Kelly at Terra Haute, Ind., and they resided there for a few years and then moved to Bellwood, Neb. They spent a few years on a farm near Bellwood, and then moved back to Indiana for a period of eight years. Returning to Nebraska at that time they located on a farm in Sherman county, later moved to Ulysses, and then returned to Bellwood to retire. Mr. Kelly passed away Apr. 3, 1929. Mrs. Kelly was a member of the Ladies society of the Methodist church in Bellwood, and was also a member of the Rebekah lodge. She is survived by three sons, Walter Kelly, of Rising City, Verlie Kelly, of Silver Creek, and Willard Kelly, of Ulysses; five grandchildren, and three sisters, Mrs. Mary Smith, of Bellwood, Mrs. George Robinson, of Columbus, and Mrs. E.J. Ludwig, of McCook. One son, Alvin, preceded her in death nine years ago. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. tomorrow at the Methodist church in Bellwood, with Rev. Street, pastor, officiating. Burial will be made in the Bellwood cemetery. The body will be taken from the Gass Funeral home to the home of her sister, Mrs. Smith, in Bellwood, late this afternoon.
