  • Notes 
    • St. Clements - The death of Albert Starr, son of Mrs. Nancy Starr, which, occurred on the 6th inst., at his mother's residence, aged 39 years, marks the close of a young life, and the news of his demise was received with sincere and profound sorrow. For nearly two years he suffered with that dread disease, consumption. The funeral took place on Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock. Services were conducted in the R. C. church after which the remains were taken to the cemetery and consigned to their last resting place. He was born here in St. Clements, and was also well known in Waterloo, where he was for 12 years wine clerk at the Zimmerman house. An aged mother, three brothers and two sisters are left to mourn his loss. They have the deep sympathy of many friends in their bereavement.
