The tragedy of washer-woman "Bridget" Daley was reported in the "Milwaukee Seebote", and the "Germania" ...

The name "Bridget" was used as a casual pejorative label for poor, or working, Irish women in the 19th c. Yet four (4) German-American papers carried this brief story to hi-lite the plight of Milwaukee's immigrant working poor.

  Sudden Death. - Bridget Daly, a widow living at the corner of Jefferson and Chicago Streets, returned home Friday evening after spending the entire day doing laundry at the American House Hotel. She collapsed in the hallway and was found dead. A stroke caused her death. The deceased leaves behind five children, the youngest of whom is only three years old.
