Died. – At her home in Brooklyn, on Wednesday, at 3:10 p.m., Miss Lula Hall,
aged 18 years, 7 months and 18 days.
Miss Lula, the eldest daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Dyre Hall was born in Nashua in 1880 and has resided here ever since. She was a young lady with a beautiful disposition, friendly to all and dearly loved by her associates. With her classmates at school she was a genuine favorite, and always ready and willing to do them an act of kindness. They will miss her when they graduate in June, as she was a member of the class. Miss Lulu was a member of the '89 class and would have graduated with them last June, and was looking forward to commencement with joyful anticipation, but sickness a year ago prevented her from fulfilling her desire, and she overcame her disappointment and dropped back to the class of '99 and applied herself to her studies with renewed energy, determined to go forth from the high school this year with honor to herself and to her class. But Providence had other plans for her and her commencement will be on the other side of Jordan. She was taken sick on April 16, with an abscess which caused a rupture. She was given all the care and attention that loving ones could think of, but they could not alleviate her sufferings. Wednesday it was decided that an operation must be performed. That was the only hope – although a forlorn one – of saving her life, and it was performed yesterday morning, but it was of no avail as she survived it but a few hours.
To the grief-stricken parents and brother and sister goes out the sympathy of the whole community. The funeral will take place at the home tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. Barrett officiating, and the remains will be interred in Oak Hill Cemetery
