Both had reached an advanced age and were dependent upon the charity of their neighbors for support. Dona Carmelita had been ill with paralysis for three years and was almost helpless while the other old lady cared for her the best she could. As late as a week ago Rosalia was around town collecting food and money for her stricken friend, little thinking that she would pass away first. However, she was taken with a stomach trouble that quickly took her away. Carmelita was so ill that her death was hourly expected, therefore the body of Rolalia was held for two days so that both could take their last journey together. Thursday afternoon two brown coffins held all that was mortal of the two women and many friends followed the remains to the Garcia Cemetery where interment took place.
