1,1H4 letters and has collected 421 let
and 45 other pieces Of mail, making q

On thursday morning August 2, Anna
wife of Joseph Schiller of Albin died of
heart failure, age 26 years, 2 months,
9 days. The sudden taking away of
Mrs. Schiller is one of the saddest incl
dents on record for some time past. A
young lady of pleasing disposition a
wish to please all and always with a cor
dial welcome to her home, is taken from
her many friends and family leaving
two girls age four and two and a hus-
band to mourn her loss. What can he
sadder. MIR. and Mrs. Schiller are both
young people brought up in Brown
county with large number of friends
WHO feel the loss of loving friend and
s7mpathize with the bereaved husband.
Mrs. Schiller was apparently in the
best OF health before retiring Wednes-
day right, full of thought and ambition
for the morrow, but Thursday morning
when Mr.. Schiller attempted to waken
his wife he finds grim death has taken
her beyond earthly call leaving her
worldly being at rest with a calm ex-
preston of contentment and satisfaction
leaving no trace of agony or pain.
