MONTOYA, JOSE IGNES - Nuestro vecino y compadre, Jose Ignes Montoya murio el domingo, dia 7 del presente, a las 7 p.m.
Entendemos que la cofradia P.D.N.P.J. tomara cargo, la cual anunciar la muerte del finado mas detalladamente.
Rogamos a Dios le de consuelo a su apesarad familia, en medio de quien deja un basio dificil de llenar, y a el alma de su escojido reposo eterno en su mancion Celestial.
El accompanamiento del finado Jose Ignes Montoya, a la Iglesia, donde se le dio Misa de cuerpo presente y de alli al ceminterio donde sus restos fueron depositados, fue senal de gratitud y deber. La Predicacion del Padre Isidro fue instructiva y provechosa para todo los circumstantes, cuando principio diciende; Que la vida del hombre sobe de la tierra era comparada con va de un soldad que tiene que pelear y luchar hasta el vencer. Y que como buenos soldados deberiamos de sequir a Cristo, quien es nuestro capitan, para levarnos navegando en el barco, que de seguro nos llevara al puerto de salvacion y vida eterna.

Translated (using Google translate)
MONTOYA, JOSE IGNES - Our neighbor and compadre, Jose Ignes Montoya died on Sunday, the 7th of the present, at 7 p.m.
We understand that the brotherhood P.D.N.P.J. will take charge, which will announce the death of the deceased in more detail.
We pray to God for comfort to his grieving family, in the midst of whom he leaves a basin difficult to fill, and to the soul of his chosen eternal rest in his Heavenly mansion.
The accompaniment of the late Jose Ignes Montoya, to the Church, where Mass was given as a present body and from there to the cemetery where his remains were deposited, was a sign of gratitude and duty. The Preaching of Father Isidro was instructive and profitable for all the circumstantes, as he says at the beginning; That the life of man on earth was compared to that of a soldier who has to fight and fight until he wins. And that as good soldiers we should follow Christ, who is our captain, to take us sailing on the ship, which will surely take us to the port of salvation and eternal life.
