Notes From Cato.

Notes From Cato.
On Tuesday, Aug. -, the Angel of
Death entered the home OF Theo.
Miller and took away the wife and
mother.
Mrs. Miller, formerly Martha AL
bright, was born in the town of Newton,
Manitowoc county, forty-three years
ago, being one of large family. On
Jan. l, 1887 she was married to Theo.
Miller.
Until three years ago they lived on
a farm near Cato. Removing TO An.
tigo, they remained about year when
they moved to st. Croix county, their
present home.
Up TO the hour of her death Mrs.
Miller was enjoying rather better
health than usual. A little after one
o'clock Tuesday, having but shortly
finished dinner Mrs. Miller was strick-
en- with heart failure, and passed away
almost Immediately.
1t was decided to bring the remains
to the old home Mt Cato for burial.
About thirty teams followed in pro-
cession from the Miller home to New
Richmond, distance of about ten
miles remaining until the train left at
10 o'clock that night. At seven o'clock
Friday morning about twenty teams
met the funeral party at Valders.
Through the kindness of David
Morgan the body was brought to his
home, on the farm joining the old
Miller home, and remained there until
Saturday, when the funeral was held
at Cato. Rev. Potter of Manitowoc
conducted the services, the songs being
rendered by Mr.. Smith of Brillion.
A cortege ofabout seventy-fve teams
voiced the sentiment of the community
and clearly showed the esteemed and
respected position always held by the
deceased and those who survive her.
Mrs. Miller was the mother of four
children, one girl dying in early child
hood. Those who survive are: Bruno,
Lena and George, all of whom are
living at home. Besides her husband
and children, Mrs. Miller is survived
by her mother and number of broth
ers ard sisters.
Mr.. Miller and family wish to ex-
press their most heartfelt thanks to
friends and former neighbors for all
the acts of kindness and sympathy so
graciously done for them in their hour
of sorrow
Glitters the dew and shines the river,
Up comes the lily and dries her bell;
But two are walking apart forever
And wave their hands for mute farewell.
And yet know past all doubling truly
And knowledge greater than grief can dim
| know as he loved he will love me duly
Yea, better-e'en better than loved him.
And as walk by the vast calm river
The awful river SO dread to see
| say, Thy breadth and thy depth forever
Are brdeed by his thoughts that cross to
me-.
