Anna Long

BADERS — The funeral of Mrs. Anna Long Schisler, which occurred from the home of her daughter, Mrs. Wm. Cassel in Astoria, Sunday, was largely attended from Baders. Aunt Anna as everybody knew her, was a good old lady, and her many friends will ever remember her walk in life, which was a good one, and the example worthy of praise. Her christian view was devout and was a loyal member to her church, and true to her God.
