1920 - Death of Miss Margaret Hosty, Annaghdown, sister of Fr Thomas Hosty, P.P.

DEATH OF MISS MARGARET HOSTY.
We learn with regret of the death of Miss Margaret Hosty, sister of the Rev. Thomas Hosty, P.P., of Annaghdown. She died in St. Bride's Home, Galway, after a short illness, fortified by the rites of holy Church. The remains were taken to the church in Corrandulla, and after High Mass on the 21st ult. were conveyed by motor to the family burial ground at Granlahan, Ballinlough. Her loss to the parish of Annaghdown will be very much felt by all the parishioners, as her simple, edifying life, her unfailing kindness, and her great charity were admired and appreciated by them all. We heartily extend to Father Hosty, the venerable P.P., our deepest sympathy in his very sad bereavement, as this good sister of his devoted her life most faithfully to his service for nearly forty years. - R.I.P.
