    Notes 
    • Passes Over Great Divide.
      Another beloved Mille Lacs county
      pioneer answered the final summons

      When Mrs. Catherine A. Applegate
      succumbed to cancer of the stomach
      at her home in this village Tuesday
      morning. Mrs. Applegate had been ill
      for some time, and the past several
      weeks was tenderly cared for by her
      daughter, Mrs. E. M. Chapman, of St.
      Cloud.

      Funeral services were conducted
      yesterday afternoon at the Methodist
      church by Rev. James A, Geer, and
      were largely attended. Interment
      was in Oak Knoll cemetery.

      Deceased, whose maiden name was
      Catherine A. Steeves, was born
      at North River, New Brunswick, Canada,
      Sept. 21, 1852. She came to Princeton
      with her parents in the fall of 1862,
      and was here married to Henry
      D. Applegate on September 14, 1873.
      Mr. Applegate passed over the great
      divide 11 years ago.

      Mrs. Applegate is survived by a son,
      Louis F., of Seattle, Wash., and a
      daughter, Mrs. E. M. Chapman, of St.
      Cloud. Three sisters and six brothers
      also survive, viz: Mrs. Thos. Scribner,
      Petitcodiac, New Brunswick, Canada;
      Mrs. Mary Rines and Wm. Steeves,
      Princeton; Abel H. Steeves, Empress, Canada;
      Mrs. John W. Nokes, Cottage Grove, Oregon;
      Robt. H. Steeves, Seattle, Wash.; Henry
      Steeves and Arthur Steeves, Princeton,
      and Fred A. Steeves of Beech, N. D.
      Mrs. Applegate was ever ready to
      lend a helping hand in connection with
      anything tending to promote the welfare
      of the village, and was always active
      in the Women's Relief association.
      She was a loving wife and mother,
      a considerate neighbor and numerous
      friends will cherish her memory.
