ANNA LANE DEAD.

The remains of Miss Anna Lane, daughter of Joseph and Mary Kosta Lane of Newton township, whose death occurred at Sioux Falls, S. Dak., last Monday, arrived here on the 2:01 p. m., train Thursday and the funeral was held at St. Augustine’s Catholic church Immediately thereafter. The funeral was to have been in the forenoon and mass was celebrated at 11 a. m., but the train did not bring the remains, so the funeral was postponed until 2 p. m., as aboye stated. Miss Lane had been suffering from that dread disease consumption for several years before death claimed her as its victim, and had been to South Dakota some two years ago to get the benefit of the dry climate there. Again last winter she returned to Sioux Falls but nothing could stay the ravages of this the most fatal of modern diseases. She was nearly 27 years of age at the time of her death, her 27 th birthday would have occurred in September, having been born and grew to womanhood in this county. She was buried in Mount Calvary cemetery among her people who have gone before her.
