Mrs. Thomas [Mary QUIVEY] MERCER, an old and highly respected citizen of Rochester, died at 2 o'clock this afternoon at her home on North Fulton avenue. She suffered a stroke of apoplexy this morning, and, together with infirmities of advanced age, the attack proved fatal. Mrs. Mercer was one of the pioneers of Fulton county, and a full obituary will be published in The Sentinel Wednesday.
Besides two children, Mrs. Charles BRACKETT, Hegeswich, Illinois, and Edward C. MERCER, south of Rochester, she leaves a husband and a number of other relatives who unite in deepest mourning.
