Found Dead in Her Bed.
For two days Bridget Carrigan, 60, who lived at 12? Seneca st. has been missed by neighbors. Last night they became suspicious, and as a result forced the door of her apartment. They found the woman lying on her bed dead. They at once notified the police. The woman had been ailing for some time. Her sister, Mary E. Carrigan, of 10 Bremen st. East Boston, was notified, and took charge of the body. It is thought that death was due to natural causes.

Mary E Carrigan was Bridget's niece, not her sister. She is at 10 Bremen St on the 1900 Census with her father James and sister Jennie.
