The Catholic Press (Sydney, N.S.W.) 28-11-1918
By cable has come the announcement of , the death of Kathleen Adele Brennan, younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Brennan, of 'Woollahra. Miss Brennan went to England some two or three years ago; she was one of the V.A.D. who offered their services to the military authorities, and because of their special efficiency were accepted. Prior to leaving Sydney she had been doing work in one of the military hospitals, and had proved herself very capable in nursing. It was while doing duty in the North Evington War Hospital, Leicester, England, that she succumbed to influenza. Much sympathy is felt for Mr. and Mrs. Brennan, who have already been sufferers by the war, their second son having been killed about two years ago. Miss Adele Brennan, who was educated at the Sacred Heart Convent, Rose Bay, was very popular amongst her old convent friends. —R.I.P.
