OBITUARY

Another dear mother was taken
from her dear ones when Mrs. Ven
eel Kacher passed away at the home
OF her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Busta,
on Friday night, May %, 1926 She
was in poor health for the last three
years but was confined to her bed on
ly one day.
Magdeline Bina was born June 27,
1916, in Unakru, Europe, and came
to this country July 6, 1870. She was
married to Venzel Kacher July 13,
1870, in St. Wenceslaus church,
Spillville, Iowa, by Rev. Mikota. They
settled on farm near Protivin, later
moving to Jackson Junction. About
ten years ago they moved to Fort
Atkinson.
The husband of the deceased pre-
coded her in death seven years ago.
The union was blessed with eleven
children, five passing away in in
fancy, and six remain to mourn her
departure, as follows: Mrs. 1. W
King, Sank Centre, Mimi; Mrs. JOS.
eph Busta, Fort Atkinson; Mrs.
Frank Leuenberger, Lawler; James,
Tony and Frank of Jackson township.
The deceased was dear mother. a
good neighbor and kind friend, al
ways ready to help everyone in need.
She was faithful member of the
Catholic church and died fortified by
its last rites and sacraments. She was
always prepared to die, having prac-
tlced her religious duties devouted-
ly and without interruption. She was
member of the Rosary Sodality for
many years and woman of many
loveable attributes which made for
her many friends, all of whom mourn
her departure.
Funeral services were held Nav
Goth, at 1000 o'clock, at st. Johns
church, Rev. Father Charles Dragoun
officiating. Interment was made in
st. Johns cemetery by the side of her
