OBITUARY
DIED -- At her home about 2 miles west of town, Saturday, August 7, 1897, at 2 o'clock, Mrs. Mary Schatz, nee Dignum.
The deceased was born in Ireland 70 years ago and came to this country when but 14, and for the last 30 years has been a resident of this county.
Owing to her retired disposition she was not widely known as might be expected, but lived more for her family, consisting of two sons and four girls, of which two of the latter, Emma and Ella, were her constant attendants during her long siege of sickness. She was a long and patient sufferer, being totally helpless since January, growing constantly weaker and fortified with the Rites of the Church. She met her Maker last Saturday, surrounded by sorrowing friends.
The remains were interred in St. Bernard's Cemetery after funeral services in St. Bernard's church, conducted by the Rev. T. P. Schwam, and ably assisted by the local choir.
