Her death has cast dark and heavy
shadow of sorrow and sadness over the

her circle of friends and associates by
whom she was almost idoliZed.
But alas. what must be the weight of
sorrow which Expresses the hearts of
doting father, loving brother and sisters.
What the bitter anguish that pierces there
souls when they look upon the vacant
countenance and hear the gentle voice of
their dear departed daughter and sister.
Their sorrow is great and hard to bear
but through its darkness and gloom there
snInes 1or us bright nSnt our saviour
promise of eternal life and happiness if
the righteous, bringing hope and con-
ISOLATION of the christian by which he sees
the dear child, that was so ruthlessly torn
from happy home and from the loving
arms of grieved friends borne to the Faith
ers kingdom to be happy evermore.
Her remains were inferred in the Roman
Catholic cemetery at Piscataway Monday
October first and were followed to their
last resting place by a large concourse of
friends who sincerely sympathize with the
family of the deceased in their sad afflic-
