MRS. CHARLES HARLAN DEAD
A Very Generous and Noble Woman

This Saturday morning at 12:35 Marie Harlan passed quietly away at her residence on Water street, attended by a few friends and her husband and son. It was her first sickness and her last. Anxiety and hard work consequent upon the sickness of her husband caused her to be suddenly taken down in September last and she failed gradually to the end. Mrs. Harlan was born on a French sailing vessel just outside the heads and arriving from France. After graduating from the public schools in San Francisco she returned to France with her mother and finished her education by a three years course in a convent in Paris.

Her step-father, James H. Gardner, built the first house constructed here after the formation of the Sausalito Land and Ferry Co. in 1868, and just at the time the first ferry steamer started running to the city. She was a woman of warm and generous nature and never refused help to any one where it was possible to give it.

She leaves a mother living in the original house at the foot of Wildwood Glen in North Sausalito, and her husband Charles Harlan and a son George H. Harlan, assemblyman from Marin county in the last California legislature. She is the aunt of Mrs. Mabel Gross Crane of Berkeley.

The Christmas holidays are tinctured by a deep sadness for her relatives and friends.
