Mrs. Tshisick, who sacrificed three children to the upbuilding of Palestine, is dead at her home here.
A daughter of the dead woman was killed in 1920, another daughter died of fever at Kenereth, while a son was killed at Hulda during the riots of last August. The death of the latter was kept from his mother for as long as possible due to the state of her health. She never recovered from the final blow.
