MORTUARY.

Washington, Ga., August 17-
Sister William Anna, one of the order of St. Joseph's whose death occurred 
Thursday in Sharon, Ga., was buried in the Catholic cemetery here Friday.  She 
was 63 years old, having lived in New York in her childhood, but for the past 
forty years had given her life to the work of the orphan boys in Washington and 
Sharon.  She joined the order of St. Joseph in Savannah in 1874 and two years 
later came to Washington, where she lived for a number of years as one of the 
sisters of charity at St. Joseph's orphanage here.  Later she was transferred 
to the orphanage at Sharon, where she lived until her death.  The funeral 
services were conducted in Washington Friday by Rev. Father Bazin [?], of 
Sharon, and Rev. Father P. H. McMahon, of the local Catholic church.
