Miss Mary Nace

Miss Mary Nace, the 18-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel Nace, of Spring Grove, who had 
been sick the past two months, died Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 5, at 1:30 o’clock.  The father, 
Emanuel Nace, was taking care of a herd of cattle at the York fair when he learned that the 
daughter was dying.  An automobile was dispatched to bring him home.  The race to get the 
father to the bedside of the dying daughter was of no avail as she expired several minutes 
before his arrival.  Besides her parents she is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Paul Ruth and 
Mrs. Joseph Hershey, of North Codorus township, four brothers, Howard E., Robert and Clinton 
Nace, Spring Grove, and George Nace, Harrisburg.

Funeral from her late home Thursday, Oct. 7, at 1:30 p.m., Rev. Geo. W. Welsh, of the Reformed 
Church, officiating.  Interment in Spring Grove cemetery.
