The Cambria freeman. (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938: March 23, 1872
Died, in Loretto, on Thursday last, Walter Richard, son of M. D. and Emma Christy,
of Parker's Landing, Pa., and nephew of Rev. R. C. Christy, of this place, aged
about 6 years. The dear little fellow was one of Mount Gallitzin's pupils, and was
on a brief visit to his grandmother when stricken down and called home to assume in
reality the character (that of an angel) which he personated so pleasingly in
tableaux presented in this place on the eve of Epiphany. We saw him on Monday night,
full of buoyant life and childish glee, and can scarcely realize the fact that he is
now with the angelic hosts that constantly surround the bright throne of the Most
High. He was one of the most endearing of children, and we can well conceive that
his sudden death, away from home and without the loving presence of his dear
parents, has created a deeply distressing void in the family circle. We believe his
disease was croup.
