Stich and took away, Anna, their twelve year old daughter. Anna had been in a bad state of health nearly the whole summer but at times seemed to grow better until on the Sunday before death came to her relief. She was a bright and handsome child and though her life was a brief one, she has left a host of friends and relatives to mourn her early and untimely departure. Deceased leaves a father and mother, a sister older and one younger than herself, also a brother who is older. She died as she had lived, strong in the faith of her savior and her early death should be an example to all; should teach us that at any time the dread death may tear us away from all we love and hold dear. The funeral took place from St. Mary's church of this city and Anna was laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery on Thursday. The sorrow stricken family have the deep sympathy of all. R. I. P.
