The death of Mrs. Matilda Doser Schumacher, which occurred on Thursday, July 29, 
at Long Branch, casts a deep shadow of sorrow over this place, where she was 
born and well known. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Doser, a bright 
loveable girl and a most estimable wife. She was born September 4th, 1862, and 
married to Geo. Schumacher, an excellent young man, June 6 1895. One child 
remains to solace the father’s heart, but will never feel the fond, warm kisses 
and endearments of a sainted mother’s love. The funeral was largely attended, 
the services taking place at St. Andrew’s church in the German Settlement on 
Saturday forenoon. There the sun now smiles sadly over her new made grave and 
angels guard the portals of her lonely tomb. 

“Thy lay is in heaven, thy love is on earth.”
