The deceased was the daughter of John and Cecilia Dolan, and was born in Jennings county, near Butlerville, Ind., August 11, 1855. At the time of death she was seventy-six years, one month and twenty-one days old. She was united in marriage with J. Tilson Higgins on November 15, 1876, at Columbus, Ind., and to this union were born eleven children, nine sons and two daughters. Five sons and a daughter survive. Two sons died in infancy and another son, Richard Carter, passed away November 14, 1930, in Canada.

Mr. and Mrs. Higgins had celebrated their golden wedding anniversary November 15, 1926. She was a lifelong member of the St. Vincent Catholic church and belonged to the Daughters of Isabella. She was a faithful attendant until her health failed. She was a kind and loving wife and mother, and her death is a great loss to the community in which she lived.
