Death of Mrs. P.A. Prince
With sincere regret The Herald announces today the death of Mrs. Prince, wife of Mr. PA Prince, manager of the Eau Claire Mills. The melancholy event occurred last evening about six o'clock, at the family residence on Reinneh Avenue, West.
Up to the early part of last summer Mrs. Prince enjoyed fairly good health, but since that time she has suffered a good deal, and gradually became weaker till Wednesday last when she became extremely weak. She had for the past day or two been gradually sinking till last night, when death released her from further suffering.
The deceased lady was born in the township of Mara, Ontario, exactly 58 years ago, and married Mr. Prince in 1857. In 1865 the family moved to Eau Claire, WI, where they resided until their removal to Calgary in 1886. During her residence in this city Mrs. Prince's heart and purse has been always open to cheer and help the poor and the afflicted. Her charity was bestowed freely and without ostentation. She was a noble-hearted Christian woman, and her loss will be deeply felt by all who knew her. Besides her sorrowing husband, she leaves two children, Mrs. Peter Eide, and Mr. John E. Prince, and four grandchildren. The funeral procession will leave the family residence at nine o'clock on Monday morning and will proceed to the church of St. Mary--the church which she loved so well and for which she labored so earnestly. The interment will take place in the new Catholic cemetery. Her bereaved husband and relatives will have the sincere sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement.
The above is taken from The Herald a daily paper published in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Feb. 5. We are indebted for the copy to Mssrs LK Kerr and Allen Cameron. Many of our citizens remember Mrs. Prince and will be grieved to hear of the death of so excellent a lady.
