    DIED — The gloom of sorrow was again cast over our community caused by the
sudden and unexpected death of Miss Mary Kennedy, which occurred at the home of
her parents, Michael and Ellen Kennedy, one mile south of Bernard, Monday
morning, August 6, 1894, aged 22 years. Miss Kennedy returned home from Dubuque
where she had been visiting, last Saturday, feeling somewhat indisposed, but her
condition caused no serious apprehension to her relatives until Monday
afternoon, when she was taken seriously ill and died before medical assistance
could be secured. Deceased was one of Dubuque oounty's successful school
teachers, having taught several terms of school in Bernard and was greatly
beloved by her pupils. Being a lady of many rare accomplishments and possessed
of an amiable, kind disposition, she naturally drew around her a large circle of
friends, who will sadly mourn her untimely death. But her loss will be almost
irreparable to the gentleman, Mr. Joseph Welter, of Dubuque, to whom she was
engaged to be married in the near future, and also to her aged parents, brothers
and sisters, by whom she was greatly beloved, and who have the sympathy of the
entire community. The funeral was held Wednesday and was largely attended. Rev.
Father Kelly conducted the services and interment being in St. Patrick's
cemetery, Garry Owen.
