Worley
At half past three this morning Emma B. Worley, wife of Charles Worley, passed from earth to the great hereafter. The deceased had for some months been suffering from consumption and the end has been thought near fro some time, but death is always unexpected. Mrs. Worley nee Emma Wiese was born on the 5th of September, 1859, in this city, being 33 years of age at the time of her death. She was married to Mr. Worley, Feb. 18, 1881.
Mrs. Worley was the daughter of Claus Wiese deceased. She was a lady of the highest culture and education. Her illness she bore with that fortitude and patience which only a woman can show. She leaves besides her husband her widowed mother Mrs. Claus Wiese, two brothers, William and Henry Wiese and her sister Mrs. Anna Wiese. Besides these there are hundreds of friends who will mourn her death and miss her.
The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon from the late residence at 425 Brady street with interment at Oakdale.
