DEATH OF SISTER RENATA
Brilliant Educator Goes to Final:
Reward
At 7::!0 last Saturday evening oc
curred the death of Sister Renata,
at St. Agnes Academy The de
ceased came here from the mother
home at Stella, New York, lasit sum
mer, being then in frail health. She
was prominent in the educational
work of this order, being teacher in
the higher classes and studies. Of
indomitable will power she retained
her physical and mental faculties to
the last. Rut a weak heart that
grew constantly weaker finally over
came her ambition and Saturday
night she passed into that mysteri
ous realm where she so desired to
be In c'tmmunion with her Creator.
The funeral of Sister Kenata oc
curred froni the convent chapel, on
Monday morning, tit 7 o'clo k. after
requiem mass had been offered up
by Rev. Father Donnelly Six Sis
ters of the Academy acted as pall
bearers and twelve students follow
ed the casket, bearing white lilies as
an insignia of her virginal life given
to the Master Two tiny girls pre
coded them, tarrying lighted taapoN
which spoke most touchingly of the
bride's coming. Owing to the storm
of snow (hat prevailed, only a few
drove to the cemetery If t ho old
adage holds good, blessed is the
passing of Sister Renata. whose cas
ket was showered with the moisture
from heaven.
Deceased leaves an aged mother
and :i toother, a Jesuit priest, both
I of whom live in the state of New
ork.
Blessed are they who die in the
l.ord, and this surely can be said of
Sister Renata.
Let me figure on your bath room
outfit. Satisfaction guaranteed.
