  TERRIBLE ACCIDENT TO SON-IN-LAW HASTENS HER DEMISE
  
  Had been in Frail State of Health for Some Time
  
  Sketch of Her Life
  
  Mrs. Margaret Scully died this morning at 6:30 o'clock at her home, 888 Abingdon street. For some years Mrs. Scully had been in poor health being afflicted with chronic bronchial trouble but it is thought that her death was hastened by the shock attendant upon the news of the terrible accident which befell her son-in-law, John Farrell, in the Burlington yards here last evening. Margaret Godsil was born in Ireland about 62 years ago and was the daughter of Mary and William Godsil. Since coming to America she has made this city her home. She was a kind and devoted mother and a faithful member of St. Patrick's church. She is survived by her husband, Edward Scully and the following children: Annie and Dan, at home; Mary Wilson, Nellie Sipes, Margaret Forsyth, Kathryn Farrell, Will of Gilson; James of Taylor, Texas; and John of LaJunta, Colo. The following grandchildren, Eddie, George and Matie Sipes; Willie and Edna Forsyth, Leona and Howard Wilson, Willie, Edward, George and Blanche Scully of Gilson, Helen and Robert Scully of Taylor, Texas. Two brothers, Mike and Patrick Godsil, a sister, Mrs. Ellen Hickey departed this life about eight months ago. The deceased was a member of the altar society of St. Patrick's church. The funeral arrangements have not been completed.
