OBITUARY - "Arizona Republican"
Phoenix, Arizona ... 14 Jan 1910
The funeral of Mrs. O. P. Dawley took place from the family residence at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon and was attended by very many friends who had long known and admired her.
At 2:50 the body, previously prepared for burial by Hodnett Burton, was placed on the train and taken to Phoenix.
A number of Mrs. Dawley's [most intimate associates accompanied the relatives on the sad journey to the graveside. The body was interred in a Phoenix cemetery by the side of a brother, William Tweed, who died a number of years ago.
Mrs. Dawley left two sisters and two brothers to mourn her loss. The sisters are Mrs. Emily Aubury, who was present during the last illness and death of Mrs. Dawley, and Mrs. Baird, wife of Captain William Baird, who came all the way from Annapolis, Maryland, arriving several hours after her sister had passed away, and Mrs. Carter wife of General W. H. Carter, who is with her husband in the Philippines.
Mrs. Olive Pratt Dawley was the daughter of Judge C. A. Tweed, and was born in Pensacola, Florida. Judge Tweed came to Arizona in 1870, and was located at Yuma. He was appointed Judge of the Supreme Court for the territory and served on the bench two terms.
Mrs. Dawley had resided in Arizona for about twenty-five years, nearly twenty years of that time being spent in Mesa.
Before coming here she had lived in San Francisco for many years. She was never satisfied, however, away from Arizona, and especially Mesa.
She owned her own property here and lived in a small cottage, preferring her home here to one in Los Angeles, where she could have had many more comforts.
Her devotion to Mesa and her pride in its growth amounted to a passion.
The many friends of Mrs. Dawley will miss her from the social circles of Mesa. She was a woman of more that ordinary intellect and of many kindly traits of character which endeared her to her associates.
