Schell, was born at Cortland, Nebraska, April 3, 1894, and departed this life with tuberculosis, October 5, 1909, aged 15 years, 6 months and 2 days. She leaves a father and mother and ten brothers and sisters to mourn her early loss. Everything that medical skill could do to cure her malady was bestowed upon her, but all to no avail. God had loved her, and in his infinite providence he came and transplanted her to the upper garden. Brief funeral services were held at the home at two Thursday afternoon; after which her casket was borne in a long cortege to the Congregational church where the main service was held. Rev. O. M. Humphreys, her pastor, preached a sermon from the text "And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it," and Rev. John Smit of Princeton delivered a touching address in German. The choir rendered Dora's favorite hymns "O Happy Day" and "The Upper Garden," in a very tender manner, after which the vast audience of relatives and friends passed in review of the beautiful body reclining in relief in the white casket. The remains were finally interred in the Princeton cemetery at sunset, Rev. Smit reading the final ceremony of commitment. Six girl friends, dressed in white officiated as pall-bearers and a profusion of flowers decked both casket and grave. "Beyond the stars that stud the sky, Beyond the utmost paths we tread, Lives in sweet immortality The life we reckoned dead. Our lives will speed their weary ways Of broken tasks and bitter tears; No loss can touch her holy days, Nor darken her eternal years."
