Death of Miss Sill
Miss Kate Sill, Principal of Bishop Whitaker’s School for Girls, died in
Virginia night before last, of cancer in the stomach.  Miss Sill was a most
estimable lady, and her demise will be a great loss to the school, and will be
very deeply regretted by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance.  Miss
Sill’s funeral will take place from the Episcopal Church to-morrow morning at 10
o’clock.  Friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to attend.

“Beyond the Smiling and the Weeping.”
The funeral services of the late Miss Kate A. Sill, at Trinity Church this
morning, was largely attended.  Many surviving friends met to pay homage to the
departed.  The service, conducted by Bishop Whitaker and Rev. Mr. Jenvey, was
very impressive.  The choir sang that very beautiful anthem “Beyond the Smiling
and the Weeping.”  Miss May Cara’s solo, so feelingly and sacredly rendered,
filled every eye with tears.  Miss Quaiffe’s arrangement of that sweet hymn “I
would not live always, I ask not to stay,” was very pathetic, Dickie Jose
singing the solo part.  Miss Anna Sill, sister of the deceased, accompanies the
remains to Warren, Pennsylvania, on to-morrow’s overland.
