MRS. KATHERINE ANNE.
The death of Mrs. Katherine Elizabeth
ANIME occurred at her home, corner
Broadway and Third North street,
Saturday morning at 2:30 o'clock, after
an illness of nearly four months. After
having enjoyed robust health all her life
and hardly knowing what sickness really
meant the deceased was attacked last
fall by cancer of the throat and despite
the best medical aid obtainable, the
disease rapidly undermined her strong
constitution, until for the past several
weeks she suffered exceedingly, her
illness being aggravated, no doubt, by
the rapid wepthsrehaages, and death
really came to her as welcome relief.
The deceased, whose maiden name
was Katherine Boettger, was born
March 8, 1843, at Eisenach, Saxony-
Weimar, Germany. In the spring of
1867 she emigrated to America, coming
at once to Minnesota and after a short
stay at St. Peter to New Ulm, making
the latter part Of the trip by team. That
same year she was joined in matrimony
toWilliam ANIME, well known contractor
and builder, who preceded her in death
December %, 1904, in this city.
The only immediate relative of the
deceased is her son, Herman ANIME, the
well-known architect and builder of this
city, and two sisters still in Germany.

children and grandchildren: Mrs. A.
j. Meyer and Miss Louise Stohlmann,
both OF this city; Mrs. Louise Mauch,

man Lutheran church and interment was
