  • Notes 
    • Sudden Death of Mrs. O. Devitt At K-W Hospital

      Many friends will learn with regret of the sudden passing of Rosetta Ruppel, wife of Mr. Orton Devitt and daughter or Mr. and Mrs. Justus Ruppel, Park Street, which took place at the Kitchener-Waterloo Hospital on Tuesday morning, aged 38 years.
      The deceased was ill only a few days and her death was quite unexpected. The funeral arrangements will be announced later.

      The late Mrs. Devitt was married 14 years ago to Mr. Orton Devitt and they resided at 29 Peter Street, Kitchener. There are left to mourn the loss of a loving wife and mother, a sorrowing husband, and seven children, five daughters and two sons, the oldest of whom is thirteen years; also her parents, three sisters and two brothers. The bereaved family have the heartfelt sympathy of a large circle of friends in their sorrow.
