  Miss Katherine Wendling, youngest daughter of Mrs. Joseph Wendling, Sr., passed away at her home on State Street on Monday afternoon, June 14, at the age of thirty-nine years. Katherine Wendling was born at Belgium, Ozaukee County, April 6th, 1881, and when she was eleven years of age her parents disposed of their property at that place and moved to Chilton locating on the O'Brien farm two miles north of this city which they had purchased. She remained at home assisting her mother on the farm until some eighteen years ago when her health failed, since which time she has been in invalid, unable to walk for many years without the assistance of crutches and for the past seven years she has been obliged to use a wheeling chair to get about the home. In 1902 her parents retired from the farm and later built a home on State Street, giving their entire attention to the care and comfort of the invalid. The best medical skill obtainable was secured but nothing could be done for her relief. Some two weeks ago she suffered a paralytic stroke and failed rapidly until released from all earthly suffering by death. During her long years of illness she was cheerful and uncomplaining and was always pleased to meet her friends and acquaintances, who frequently called at her home to visit her. She enjoyed their company which helped to lighten her affliction. Ill health and suffering did not spoil her disposition as is often the case but on the contrary made her sympathetic and mindful of the comfort of others. Her father died April 1917 since which time she and her mother have lived together. The funeral was held at nine o'clock on Thursday moring from St. Mary's church, Rev. Fr. L. N. Thelen celebrating Requiem Mass with interment in the family lot in St Mary's cemetery. She is survived by her mother, one brother, Jos. T. Wendling, and two sisters, Mrs. Joseph Schmitz and Mrs. Anton Lodes.
