William Net- straeter, former pastor of St. Joseph's church, Wilmette, who died April 7, 1924, it is stipulated that a new church is to be built from the funds of his property within five years after his death, it has been announced. The exact value of the property left by the former St. Joseph's pastor is at present not fully known because of the various parcels of land that are being placed on the market. Although there is no definite announcement as to the location of the prospective church, it will no doubt be built on property owned by Rev. Netstraeter, near the present church edifice at Lake and Ridge avenues. Rev. Netstraeter, who was born in Westphalia, arrived in America at the age of 28. He was ordained in 1868 and in 1872 became pastor of the St. Joseph's parish. He had been in St. Joseph's parish until his death April 7,at the age of 83 years. Rev. J. A.
