Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, November 5, 1891 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Orwell - The Union Sunday school of Orwell, is morning deeply over the loss of one of its brightest members. Anna Stowell has fallen a victim to the cruel diphtheria; aged nine years. None in the school feels this bereavement more than the class to which she belonged. Her teacher speaks of her in the brightest terms as being bright, as well as good. The feelings of the class were indescribable when they met, knowing that Anna would never be with them again. It was with a great effort that we became resigned to the Providence that had removed her from our midst. We did not feel anxious about her condition. Her remark just before she died lingered in our memory. She has gained by the removal. But, oh, how poor we feel without her. Everybody loved her! Why not? She was so lovable. But there were none who loved her more than her teacher and the class. Her sweet, beautiful life often rises before us, and as a class, we hope to profit by it. Her Sunday school teacher and class.
