Coffman and wife at Vineland, where she had a stroke of paralysis on the morning of the 16th of Jan., 1906, which left her in a helpless condition. She was found by her daughter, but was unable to tell when or how the stroke had come. From the first she gradually sank until the end came on the 22nd of Jan., 1906; aged 55 Y., 10 M., 18 D. Although unable to speak after her first attack she was conscious until the last few days, and recognized her children David and Malinda, who came from Indiana to her bedside on the 18th, and by various signs she showed that she was perfectly resigned and ready to met her God in peace, and the end came so quietly and peacefully that she seemed to pass into sleep. Sister Mann was for 18 years a beloved member in the Elkhart Cong. and we deeply mourn our loss, though we know our loss is her eternal gain. Services were held at the house of Bro. S. F. Coffman at Vineland on the 23d by Bro. Gilbert Bearss from 1 Sam. 20:3, after which the remains were accompanied by her children to the home in Elkhart, where services were held on the 26th by D. H.

Interment in the cemetery adjoining, where her husband was laid to rest four years ago. Beside her children she leaves 11 grandchildren, one brother and one sister to mourn her death. In their love and devotion for mother the sons had built and furnished a beautiful and comfortable home for her on Garfield avenue, but God had a far more beautiful mansion prepared for her on the street that is paved with gold, and he has called her to enjoy the better home on high. God comfort all the bereaved hearts and draw them close to his own great loving heart.

She is survived by her husband, now 92 years old, three daughters and two sons, of whom one is a minister; also a number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren, to mourn her departure, yet not without hope. Burial on the 26th in the Bowmansville Mennonite cemetery. Funeral services in the M. H. adjoining by Henry Good and Bish. Benj. Weaver. Blessed is the death of the righteous. Peace to her ashes.

He was a son of John C. and Mary Colosky Harrington, and one of thirteen children, seven of whom have preceded him to the eternal world. He leaves a sorrowing wife and daughter, one grandson, three brothers, two sisters and many friends to mourn his death. He was one of that unassuming, quiet class of men who move through the world attending to their own affairs in so kind and inoffensive a manner that harmony and good feeling always leave their impress on the mind, and in this way he continually gained the respect and friendship of those with whom he associated or did business. His friendship was warm and constant and always the same, and many can testify that he was indeed a friend in times of need. Even the dumb animals shared in the enjoyments of his general kindness and good nature. In his business dealings he was generous, as some would say, to a fault. In his religious views he was a Mennonite, though never formally identified with the church. During his last sickness from which he suffered about, a year, his prayers were indeed an inspiration to those who heard him. He confessed his weakness and shortcomings and said he had asked God to forgive him and had the assurance that his prayers were heard and he was not afraid to die. Funeral services were conducted at the Christian church in Wakarusa by John F. Funk of Elkhart, from John 14:2, 3. He was buried in the cemetery at Goshen. May the Lord comfort the bereaved hearts and give them grace to obtain the blessed reward and meet again the loved ones gone before.

May the Lord comfort the bereaved friends with the glorious thoughts of a blissful reunion in the world beyond.

Penner - Elizabeth, wife of P. A. Penner was born in South Russia, Oct. 29, 1875, and died at Calcutta, India, Jan. 3, 1906. The cause of her death was mastoiditis. The pain was attributed to a decaying tooth and they went to Calcutta to have it extracted. After leaving the dentist's office the pain became more intense, till in only a few hours she passed away. After her death it was noticed that there was a discharge from her ear. The abscess had broken. The last question asked her by her husband was, "Ist der Herr Jesus mit dir?" She answered in the affirmative and passed away. She was laid to rest on Jan. 4th in the South Circular Road cemetery, Calcutta. She leaves a husband and daughter in India to mourn her loss, beside her relatives in America. The daughter will soon return to America with her Grandfather Penner, who is here for a visit. To be bereft of a companion on the mission field is sad. Bro. Penner represents the General Conference Mennonites. Memorial services were held on Sunday, Jan. 14th, at the mission at Champa.

He was the father of eight children; three preceded him to the spirit world. After six weeks of intense suffering of cancer of the gall duct, he died in the Christian faith and in the knowledge of the saving power of Jesus Christ. He was a faithful member of the Mennonite church, he has gone but a little while before, and soon we too most follow. We hope to meet in the dawning of the resurrection morning and clasp glad hands again on the other side. Funeral services were conducted at the South Gaines U. B. church by Pre. J. P. Miller.
