Three year old daughter of Thomas J. Crowley and Ella Mae (Craig) Crowley.

The following from her obituary in the Harrington Citizen Newspaper: "Marion Crowley, the 3 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Crowley, was killed by a train at Oakesdale last Saturday and was buried in the Harrington Cemetery Monday afternoon, J. E. Turner having charge of the body. It appears that the little girl was picking flowers near the railroad track when she caught her foot in a cattle guard and an approaching freight train killed her. The body was brought back here in a closed auto. Brief funeral services were held at the grave, Rev Alexander Pringle officiating. W S Thompson sang several songs with the accompaniment of his guitar. The little girl's body was placed beside the bodies of her two brothers who had been buried there for several years."
