Death Notice
Unidentified Newsclipping
DISOSWAY.--A letter from Dr. Drees, Superintendent of our Missions in South America, addressed to Dr. Baldwin, of our Mission Rooms, and received on Monday, furnishes information which will cause sorrow in many hearts. We quote: "You will sympathize with us in our sorrow at learning, as we did this morning, of the death from "la grippe" of Miss Virginia A. Disosway, a valued assistant in the Rosario Home of the Womans's Foreign Missionary Society's work in Argentina. She had never been enrolled as a regular missionary in our church, but went to South America in response to our invitation, and at her own expense, some three years ago. We had enlisted her services in the Rosario Home, where she gave us most valuable aid, toiling in a most self-denying and wholly unostentatious manner. She was a very dear friend of ours, and we feel sorely bereaved. She was a daughter of Gabriel P. Disosway, long a prominent Methodist in New York. Her death occurred July 14. Our Mission is in great need of help. Pray that we may be guided aright in seeking men and women to take up the vacant posts."
