MISS BERTHA STEUER

  Miss Bertha Steuer died at ?:40 o'clock yesterday morning at the home 
of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. Steuer, 1808 Fourth avenue.  Her 
untimely demise resulted from a complication of diseases superinduced 
by a severe cold, from which she had been a sufferer for more than a 
year.  The deceased was born in this city January 6, 1892.  Besides her 
parents she is survived by two sisters, Clara Steuer and Mrs. Charles 
Filer.  The young woman has been a patient sufferer, rarely making a 
complaint. Her last days were full of pain, but she bore her sufferings 
with patience and fortitude; and so it was with calmness she faced the 
end.  She was conscious when the summons came, and surrounded by her 
family, passed peacefully out.  In early life her sun had gone down in 
the morning to arise in a lovelier ray in God's eternal day.  Miss 
Steuer was a member of St. Mary's German Catholic church where mass 
will be sung for the repose of her soul Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock.  
Interment in St. Mary's cemetery.
