Relatives and friends in Owen (Clark Co., Wis.) were grieved to learn of the passing of Mrs. Burke Royer Andrews, who death occurred at Chicago on Monday of this week. For several months she had been making her home with her son, Shirley, in Chicago, and prior to that time had lived in Minneapolis.

Mrs. Andrews left Owen about four years ago, selling her property here to Dr. G.A. LeGault, and moved to Minneapolis. After she began failing in health she went to Chicago, where she has since resided. She had been a resident of Owen for more than 30 years, and in that time had established for herself numerous friends, all of whom mourn her demise.

She leaves to mourn, three sons, Royer and Shirley of Chicago, and Alongey, who lives in Minneapolis, and one daughter, Eunice of Chicago. Funeral services were conducted Wednesday evening from the Episcopal Church in Chicago.
