Death of Sister Aaatha.

The hearts of many old pupils of St
| Mary's were saddened by the an
noUncement of the death of Sister
Agatha, which occurred on Tuesday,
! July g. at the Loretto convent near
| Fort Logan. Sister Agatha was one
of the little band of Lorettines that
settled in Santa Fe, n. M, in 1858, and
six years later came to Colorado and
established st. Mary's academy on
Fourteenth and California streets, the
first and for some time the only school
in Denver. This arduous Journey by
OK team over the Indian-infested prai-
ries was undertaken at the earnest So
licitation of the sainted Bishop March
beouf, who until the day of his death
remained the staunch and true friend
of the sisters.
Sister Agatha was born in Tipperary,
Ireland, seventy seven years ago. and
was known in the world as Ellen Wall.
In early womanhood she came to
America and shortly after entered the
novitiate of the Sisters of Loretto at
Loretto, KY, the mother house of the
order. Sister Agatha taught at the
academy on California street until the
new boarding school at Loretto
Heights was built, when she was
transferred to it and remained one of
the most able members of the faculty
until few years ago, when she was
retired on account of her advanced
age. In 1904 Sister Agatha celebrated
the golden jubilee of her reception into
the order, on which occasion she was
the recipient of many tokens of love
and messages of congratulation from
her old pupils. Her funeral occurred
Thursday morning, July II, from the
convent chapel Interment was made
in the sisters lot.
