The Evening Star, October 16, 1879
Death of Mrs. Joseph Gales

Mrs. Gales, the widow of the late Joseph Gales, the editor of the National Intelligencer for many years, died yesterday at her residence, Eckington, just over the city limits, east of North Capitol street, in the 81st year of her age. Mrs. Gales was a Miss Lee, of Virginia, and was recognized for years one of the handsomest and most accomplished ladies of the District. She married Mr. Gales just after the War of 1812, when quite young. Mr. Gales at that time (having previous to the war been a short hand reporter for that paper, then published by Samuel Harrison Smith) assumed the management of the Intelligencer.

Mrs. Gales had no children, and since her husband's death she has seldom left her home, and for the past few years has gradually failed, her death being from old age. Her funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon from her late residence.
