day the community was startled by the
announcement of the death of Mrs.
Catherine Conner wife Of our late Coun.
ty Treasurer It was bat few days
ago that she had removed to their old
home in Eagan. 1t seemed as if she
had returned to die. It was home to
her. There her children We're born.
There she had spent the happiest days
Of her life, and there she often expressed
her wish. that she might die. Her wish
was granted.
She was buried at Iqver Grove with
the most imposing ceremonies of the
Catholic Church. The choirs of the
Mendoza and Hastings churches sang
during the service. Requiem Mass was
celebrated by Rev. Father Glennon Of
Mendoza: the Rev. Father Halton, OF
Hastings, preaching the sermon. After
the Mass Mrs. Donnelly sang one Of
her grand solos with such pathos and
feeling that it touched every heart so
that relief could only be found in tears.
