Camp, daughter of the late John James Camp, which occurred Wednesday at her residence on Holt street, at 1:30 o’clock, after a prolonged and painful illness. The deceased was a lady esteemed and beloved by all who knew her, on account of her beautiful simplicity of character, her charity toward the poor and her consideration for those in distress. She was a devoted member of the Catholic Church, and it was her great delight for many years to adorn and beautify the altars of St. Mary’s. She will be greatly missed. Her Christian fortitude was strongly exhibited in the patience with which she bore her illness — never once repining, but submitting to the will of God. She was as near perfection as one could be. Her funeral will take place this morning at 10 o'clock from St. Mary's Church.
