Death of Mrs. Michael Wirtner 

On Thursday morning July 2nd, Mrs. Ella, wife of Simon Wirtner of Latrobe, having 
learned from a letter from her mother – Mrs. Simon Kisch of Barr township – that the 
latter intended paying her a visit went to the depot in her bare head to meet her and 
the day being excessively hot, she was prostrated by the heat and not being known, it is 
alleged, she was not properly taken care of by the officials of the company. She was 
past relief when she was finally recognized.  Her mother arrived on the evening train to 
find her dead.

Mr. and Mrs. Wirtner were but recently married and her early demise is much regretted 
by a large circle of friends and relatives. The funeral took place in the Catholic cemetery 
at Nicktown on Saturday last.
