Mrs. Dion Carter, Jr. received the sad news of the death of her mother last Friday morning eat the Nicholas Senn Hospital in Omaha where she had undergone an operation. The mother, Mrs. Emma Romaniski, was the widow of the late A. Romaniski, and the family lived at one time in the neighborhood of the German Hall and still own their home farm there. Mrs. Romaniski made her home for a year or two with her son-in-law, Dion Carter, Jr. on east Colfax street, after which she moved to her farm at Bancroft and that was her present home. She leaves to mourn her sudden departure three daughters, Mrs. Mary Swanson of Bancroft, Mrs. Dion Carter, Jr. of Blair, Miss Lily Romaniski, who has taken loving care of her invalid mother for the past two years, and six sons, all married and farming at Bancroft and in South Dakota.

The children all accompanied the remains of the mother to St. Louis for burial where they have a family lot and where their late father is buried. Four grandsons of Mrs. Swanson at Bancroft and two sons of Dion Carter, Jr. are also left to mourn the grandmother.

Mrs. Romaniski was a pioneer of Washington County and endured all the early hardships of that life. She has been in poor health for a long time, and the children know that at last their mother has gone to the happier land where pain and sorrow are no more. The family have the sympathy of friends in Washington County in their bereavement.
