This same year we also organized our first Sunday school and Bro. Sommer was elected superintendent and served six consecutive years amid considerable opposition.

There were present 16 ministers and a large concourse of people. Burial in the adjoining cemetery. The family deeply mourn their loss and we as a congregation will greatly miss his counsel and his presence. While we as ministers keenly feel the added responsibilities that come to us, yet we all bow in humble submission to the will of our heavenly Father and pray His blessings upon us and especially that God might bless the bereft family. Thus one by one we pass away and some one else must take our place. May we also so live that when death comes we may enjoy the blessing of the righteous who die in the Lord.
J.A. Liechty.
