MRS ANNA HEITZ CALLED BY DEATH
Death claimed Mrs. Anna Heitz, widow of the late Michael (should be Nicholas) Heitz, Sunday evening at 9:15 o’clock at the family home, 101 Maple Street. She had been ailing for the past three months.

Mrs. Heitz was born in Belgium May 3, sixty-nine years ago, and had resided in this city for a period of sixty-one years.

She is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Nicholas Sutton, six sons, Frank, Matt, Joseph, Lawrence, William and Carl; two sisters, Mrs. Joseph Dendinger and Mrs. Catherine Thill: twenty-five grandchildren, all of this city.

Being a Catholic, a member of St. Mary’s church and the Rosary Society, Mrs. Heitz died comforted in her last hours by the rites of that religion.

The funeral will be held Wednesday morning from the home to St. Mary’s church at 9 o’clock. Interment will be made in Mt. Calvary cemetery.
