It is with unfeigned regret that we have to record the death of most estiL1able lady, an old resident of this city, Mrs. Elizabeth Sheedy, who departed this life on the 31st of August, 1882, at the advanced age of 79 years. Her funeral, which took place on Saturday. the 2d inst, from her late residence 48 Temple street, attended by her grief stricken daughters and many mourning friends, to St. Mary's church, where, at 9 o'clock B. m., a requiem high mass was sung for the repose of her soul, after which her remains were conveyed to the depot, to be forwarded to Middletown for final interment in the family burying ground in St. Johns cemetery. During the last days of her ill- ness Rev. Father Labor was almost in daily attendance at her side, administering to her the holy consultations of religion, and being conscious to the last moment, it was most edify ing to see how we'll she was prepared to meet Der Divine Maker. In his pathetic ad- dress at the funeral service, after referring to her exemplary life, her Christian forti- tude and pious resignation, he expressed his heartfelt sympathy with the daughters of the old lady, in this sad bereavement, and paid them 8 merited tribute for their constant zeal and devotion to their good and atfec- tionate mother.
