OBITUARY - DEATH COMES TO MISS VAN WINKLE - FIRST YOUNG WOMAN TO PUT NEWSPAPER IN TYPE IN THIS CITY IS NO MORE.

There passed into life eternal yesterday Miss Charlotte Van Winkle, the daughter of the late John V. and Matilda Stewart Van Winkle. The end followed a long period of illness, from a complication of diseases, at the home of her niece, Lottie Van Winkle Bailey, the wife of George H. Bailey, at Athenia, where Miss Van Winkle had made her home for several years past.

Miss Van Winkle was born in this city and lived practically her entire life in Paterson. An interesting reference to the deceased is that during her days of activity she spent the larger portion of it in local newspaper offices. Miss Van Winkle had the honor of being one of the first young girls of Paterson who was selected to learn the art of hand composition. She was employed on the Paterson Daily Guardian and the Paterson Daily Press for many years. It was said that she was one of the most expert in her line in putting the news of the day into type. Miss Van Winkle retired from duty when the linotype machines were brought into use.

Charlotte Van Winkle was a woman of refinement, with a Christian character that left its impress upon others. She was a member of the Old Prospect Street Methodist Church. Miss Van Winkle possessed the gentleness of disposition that made her a most desirable friend and companion. The latter part of her life was spent in the interest of young people, that gathered around her, and none was loved dearer by the younger generation than was Miss Charlotte Van Winkle, who had the rare tact of importing instruction patiently and successfully.

Miss Van Winkle is survived by one sister, Mrs. Jennie Rudy, the widow of Fred R. Rudy, and the mother of Raymond Rudy, of the local Post Office force.

The funeral will be held at the Athenia home on Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The Newark train that leaves Paterson station at 3:06 p.m. will bring Paterson friends within a few steps of the home. Interment will be made in Cedar Lawn.
