George Agnew Jr. Succumbs To Tuberculosis
George Agnew Jr. passed away last Tuesday morning at the home of his parents on C street after a long illness from the dreaded enemy, tuberculosis. He was but twenty-six years of age. The funeral will be held at 9:30 this morning at St. Raphael's church, where a requiem mass will be celebrated, preceding the interment in Mt. Olivet cemetery.
The deceased was well known in San Rafael, having worked at his trade of carpenter here for several years. For a short time preceding his illness he conducted a grocery store in Fruitvale. In the hope that an improvement in his health might be effected, the deceased about three months ago, went to Arizona. He remained but a short time, however, as he realized that his lungs were too seriously affected to be benefitted by a climate change. He returned to die among loving friends and relatives.
A widow, Catherine, and two small children, Marion and Kathleen, mourn his loss. He was the son of George and Delia Agnew, and the brother of Mrs. G. Green, Mrs. J. C. Brown, Harry, Walter and Jack Agnew. He was a member of the Carpenters' Local No. 22 of San Francisco.
