Cottonwood Chronicle, Cottonwood, ID; April 2, 1936
SISTER M. HYACINTHA

  A pall of sorrow settle over the community late Saturday when word was 
received of the death of Sister M. Hyacintha, O.S.B, youngest daughter of Mr. 
and Mrs. John Schnider of Cottonwood.
  Sister M. Hyacintha had been in failing health for some time and although 
her demise was not expected, still it left a void in the hearts her many 
friends to realize that she had been called from the chosen vocation at such 
an early point in life.
  Lena Schnider was born at Hazelton, North Dakota, January 3, 1903.  At the 
age of six years she came west with her parents and located at Cottonwood.  
She grew to young womanhood here and in 1923 she entered St Gertrude’s Convent 
as a novice and passing her novitiate she later took up teaching as her chosen 
field.  She taught in the parochial school at Pomeroy for one year, then spent 
seven years in the parochial school at Ferdinand and one term at St. Joseph’s 
School at Cottonwood.  Failing [health] forced her to retire from the 
strenuous duties of teaching and for the past three years her condition 
gradually became worse and Saturday she answered the final summons.
  Sister M. Hyacintha is survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Schnider; 
one sister, Mrs. L.A. Rad; and four brothers, Henry, Louis, Bernad and Richard 
Schnider all of Cottonwood.
  Funeral services were conducted at the convent chapel Tuesday morning.  A 
solemn requiem High Mass was read by Rev. Fr. Alfred and interment was in 
private cemetery of the institution.
