Tourigny, Madaline (1870 - 04 Dec 1900)

Mrs. Madaline Charles Tourigny died very suddenly at her home on the North Side (Neillsville, Clark County) Tuesday night about 10 o'clock. The news of her death came like a bolt from a clear sky to the community. She was downtown in the evening returning about 8:30 o'clock, apparently in usual health. Shortly after she was seized with convulsions. A physician was summoned, but before he arrived she was in a state of collapse.

Mrs. Tourigny was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Charles who were early settlers of the town of Pine Valley. She was born at the Charles homestead about thirty years ago. She grew to womanhood here and was educated in the Neillsville schools after which she taught successfully for several years. Dec. 31st she was married to Denis Tourigny. They had just fitted up their residence on the North Side and began housekeeping. The husband, brothers and sisters of the deceased have the sympathy of all.
