Rear Admiral George A. Bicknell, retired, received a telegram announcing the death of his sister, Mrs. Martha Richards Hasken Bicknell Mahon, at her home in Washington. Death was due to pneumonia, with which she was stricken on Monday of last week. Mrs. Mahon was past seventy years old and was reared in New Albany, though she had lived in Washington for more than thirty years. She was the oldest daughter of the late Judge George A. Bicknell, who at one time represented the New Albany district in Congress and who was Judge of the Floyd Circuit Court many years. Her surviving children are John Duncan Mahon, Miss Elizabeth Richards Mahon, Mrs. Mary Mahon Stockard and William Neal Mahon, all of whom live in the East. Besides her brother, Rear Admiral Bicknell, of New Albany, Mrs. Mahon is survived by another brother, the Rev. Dr. Jesse Bicknell, of Baltimore, an Episcopal minister, and a sister, Mrs. Emma Love, of Atlanta. The body was brought to New Albany for burial in Fairview cemetery. Funeral services will be held at St. Paul's Episcopal church, of which Mrs. Mahon was a member for many years. - Public Press 18 Mar 1914
