Obituary
Miss Fannie Schnauer, aged 18 years, the bright spirit of her home, departed this life at noon yesterday, after a lingering illness of some duration But in all her sufferings she was patient, showing the Christian spirit in which she had been reared. Among a large circle of friends, Miss Fannie had always been a favorite and now that she has gone, a vacant place remains in their hearts, hard to be filled. She loved her church, and like a true Catholic, was ever ready to lend a helping hand for true charity's sake. The aged parents are left in sorrow to mourn the loss of one so dear to their hearts, the loving sisters and kind brothers feel keenly the void at their fireside and in their hearts by the departure from this world of pain of their angel sister. But they have the support of the Christian knowledge, imbued in their hearts from infancy, that the separation is but brief, and as time shall close their earthly careers they will meet her where sorrow knows no home. In Miss Fannie's death St. Michael's loses a faithful member, her parents a dutiful daughter, her brothers and sisters a king and loving sister, and her numerous friends a dear companion.
Thy loss, dear Fannie,
Oh! how bitter it tires;
But we know thy spirit
Dwells in Angelic skies
God has called--
We may not repine;
Touch us, Oh Lord!
We're but creatures of Thine.
