OBITUARY:
MISS FISHER DEAD.
Her Spirit Took Its Flight at 9:30 Last Night.
Death invaded the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Fisher, on State and 25th streets, this city, at 9:30 o'clock last night and called therefrom the spirit of their beloved and accomplished daughter, Minnie. The deceased was formerly an employe at the state insane asylum and about a year ago she contracted a cold which settled on her lungs. She continued at her work until the 1st of last August, when her health began to fail very fast and she was compelled to resign her position at the asylum. She was aged 27 years and, besides her parents, she leaves six brothers, (one of whom is residing in Kansas) and three sisters, viz: Mrs. E. Yerger of Michigan City, Indiana; Mrs. B. F. West of South Commercial street, this city; and Miss Georgia Fisher, an attendant at the asylum.
The time for the funeral will be announced later.
