Maj.-Gen. Cecil Mangles

"The death recently of Mrs. Cecil Mangles, of Hale, Surrey, should not be allowed to go unrecorded in a Catholic paper, if only in order that a substantial benefaction by that lady many years ago may be brought to mind. A friend of The Tablet with knowledge of the circumstances recalls for us that in 1911 Mrs. Mangles gave the Catholics of Alton their present charming church, and solicited aid for purposes connected with it; and in other ways also she showed much zeal for the spread of the faith. Mrs. Mangles, before her first marriage in 1871, to Captain William Addis Fagan, of the 12th Lancers, was Miss Frances Mahoney, daughter of Daniel Mahoney, of Dunloe Castle, Killarney, who was High Sheriff of County Kerry ninety years ago. After her first widowhood she married, in 1891, Major-General Cecil Mangles, C.B., of the 20th Hussars, who died in 1906. Requiescat.
