BISH. JACOB C. KENAGY.
In Cass Co., Mo., March 6, 1894, Bish. Jacob C. Kenagy, passed away calmly and peacefully, conscious of his approaching end and with a clear mind to the last moment. He was aged 72 years, 7 months and 2 days. Funeral services were held on the 8th by John J. Hartzler and Peter Zimmerman in German, and Henry Richner, of Johnson county, in English. Brother Kenagy moved from Logan Co., Ohio, to Cass Co., Mo., in 1866, and organized a church with but few members, which prospered and steadily increased under his constant and indefatigable care to the number of some 300 members, notwithstanding the vicissitudes and stormy trials incident the office of a bishop where members collect from perhaps twenty or more different congregations, and who are educated into as many different modes and customs which are held as sacred by many as the Holy Scriptures. The number attending this funeral was estimated at 700. Peace be to our worthy brother's weary soul. J.K. ZOOK

KENNEL.-On the 13th of March 1894, near Roanoke, Woodford Co., Ill., of consumption, Catharine Kennel, aged 24 years, 3 months and 13 days. About 2 months before her death she went with her brother to southern Kansas, in the hope of recruiting her health, but she continued to fail so rapidly that she died on her homeward journey at Streator, Ill., shortly after the arrival of the train there. Her remains were taken home the same evening, and were laid to rest on the 15th in the Roanoke Amish graveyard, followed by many friends. She was resigned to God's will and we believe she is at rest. She was a faithful member of the church. Her parents, 3 brothers and a sister mourn her departure. Funeral services by John Smith, John P. Schmitt, E. Hartman, Peter Sommer and Chr. Risser, from John 5:24-30 and Rev. 14:13.

FUNK.-March the 10th 1894, sister Catharine Funk, aged 80 years, 11 months and 26 days. Our beloved sister in faith took sick about a month ago. Her physician soon discovered that heart trouble was existing, and expressed little hope of her recovery. She manifested during her sickness a strong faith in a living Redeemer, and expressed the hope soon to meet her Savior whom she tried to serve, and in whom she implicitly trusted for her salvation. She was exceedingly patient during her sickness and resigned to the will of Him who had power to restore her health if it was His will. She took a stroke of apoplexy on the 7th inst., and from that time remained in a semi-conscious condition. She slept much of the time till the 10th when she fell asleep to wake up we trust with the redeemed of our Lord. The deceased lived with her daughter in the borough of Strasburg, Lanc. Co., Pa. The funeral was appointed to meet at the house at 9 o'clock on the 13th where Pre. Elias Groff held short appropriate services. She was then taken to the Millersville Mennonite meeting-house where Pre. John K. Brubaker preached from the text, Num. 23:10, "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." She was then consigned to her long resting place beside her husband who had gone the way of all flesh a number of years before her, in hope that she will rise when the call is made, that all that are in the grave shall come forth that she may come forth and be placed to the right hand of her blessed Redeemer, whom she so faithfully trusted while she was living.

BRUBAKER.-On the 18th of February 1894, in Juniata Co., Pa., Annie Brubaker, daughter of Barbara Brubaker, aged 15 years and 14 Days. She was sick about one week.

On their way to this country 29 years ago her husband and one son took sick of the cholera and died in New York. With the rest of the family she came to Danver's Ill., in June, where another son died in the harvest field of sunstroke the first week after their arrival.

Sleep on in thy beauty,

By sorrow unblighted,
By sin undefiled.

Like the dove to the ark
Thou hast flown to thy rest;
From the wild sea of strife
To the home of the blest. M.S.

She was a consistent member for many years, a widow and a sufferer of consumption, and experienced many privations in this life, yet she bore her sufferings with patience and left behind her a life truly worthy of example and also a bright hope that she is at rest.

WEAVER.-On the 19th of February, 1894, in Richland Twp., Cambria Co., Pa., of consumption, Bro. Daniel Weaver, aged 21 years, 3 months and 19 days. He was buried on the 21st in the family graveyard. Funeral services at the Weaver M.H. by L.A. Blough and Jonas Blough. He left behind a sorrowing mother, three brothers and one sister to mourn their loss, but they need not mourn as those who have no hope, for he died with a bright hope of eternal life. This is the fifth of the family that died of consumption, including father, two sons and two daughters. May God comfort the sorrowing friends.

GARBER.-On the 10th of October, 1893, near Garden City, Mo., John H. Garber, aged 24 years, shot himself accidentally. He was out gathering wild grapes accompanied by his father-in-law, D. Hough, and brother-in-law, W.P. Lyons. They were just preparing to go home, John W. Lyons getting on the back seat of the wagon. D. Hough just got into the wagon as John said to him, "Let me have your gun as I may see a rabbit," and reached and took hold of the barrel and was drawing it over the front seat when it was discharged, the bullet striking him in the left temple passing upward and backward, ploughing a deep furrow through his brain and killing him instantly. His terror stricken comrades were almost paralyzed by the shock, and the agony of his young wife to whom he was married only last winter, and whom he had left only a few hours before, full of life, can be more easily imagined than described. He was not yet baptized, but last spring when Bro. D.D. Miller and D.H. Bender were preaching at the Bethel and Sycamore churches, he was under conviction and resolved to lead a better life, but thought he would first tell his wife and have her to join with him on the Sunday night following, but that night on the way home his wife was thrown out of the spring wagon and had her collar bone broken, and from that time she was sick until his death, a little daughter having been born only three weeks before. Soon after the child was born he told his wife that as soon as she was able to go they would unite with the church. But he was called away in the twinkling of an eye. Oh this was a loud call to all, especially to those who have not yet made their calling and election sure. Today the Savior calls, O hearken to His voice, and do not delay, for to-morrow may not be yours.

MUSSER.-On the 4th of March, 1894, near Camphill, Cumberland Co., Pa., of consumption, Mrs. Ethel Musser, aged 24 years, 5 months. Buried on the 7th. The minister's text was Acts 7:60, "And when he had said this he fell asleep." Mrs. Musser suffered very much. She was confined to her bed thirteen weeks. She left a dear husband and two small children to mourn her departure. She left a bright hope for the eternal world.

"Thou wert all resigned and patient,
Willing all thy pain to bear;
For thy trust was placed in Jesus,
Who will all our sorrows share.

Sweetly sleep, then, dearest mother,
Since our Savior thought it best,
Earthly life to change for glory,
Cares and trial for sweeter rest."

FREED.-On the 4th of March, 1894, in DeKalb Co., Ind., of old age, Bro. Peter Freed, at the advanced age of 98 years and 6 months. He was born in Virginia, moved to Columbiana Co., Ohio, in his youth, where he married Hannah Miller, Dec 10, 1822. To them were born 4 sons and 7 daughters, 2 and 3 respectively of which survive him, also 68 grandchildren, 72 great-grandchildren and 3 great-great-grandchildren. His wife died June 4, 1862. Two years later he moved with his son Henry to DeKalb Co., Ind., making his home with him the remainder of his days. He was a member of the Mennonite denomination over 70 years, and lived a consistent, exemplary life, and passed away like a shock of corn fully ripened for the garner, and we mourn not as those who have no hope. Buried on the 6th in the presence of many relatives and friends. Funeral sermon by Eli Stofer, assisted by Daniel Smith and H.H. Elson from Heb. 4:9.

BOWMAN.-Sister Mary, wife of Bish. Jacob Bowman, was born in Franklin Co., Pa., and died at the residence of her son-in-law, G.W. Vandemark, near Canal Winchester, Ohio, Dec. 23d, 1893, in the eighty-second year of her age. She, with her husband, became a member of the Mennonite church in 1846, and for nearly half a century was faithful unto Him who has called her up higher. Her funeral was conducted by Pre. L.C. Sparks, assisted by Bro. Brenneman, and was largely attended.

DIRTZ.-On the 20th of February, 1894, near Shiremanstown, Cumberland Co., Pa., David Dietz aged 65 years.

"'Tis hard to part with thee, dear father,
We can only wonder why
Thou hast left us grieved and lonely,
May we meet thee by and by.

Human hands have tried to serve thee,
Tender care was all in vain;
Holy angels came and bore thee
From this weary world of pain."

YODER.-On the 7th of March, 1894, in Johnstown, Pa., very suddenly, by accident, Hiram Yoder, aged 27 years, 2 months and 6 days. He was an active young man in the vigor of manhood but in trying to jump on a moving train he was thrown under the wheels and had both legs cut off. He was immediately taken to the hospital, but died a few hours later. On the 8th the remains were taken to his father's home, about ten miles from Johnstown, and were buried on the 9th at the Fry's (Brethren) church, followed to the grave by a large concourse of friends and and* neighbors. This is indeed a loud call to the unconverted, and also to those who may venture into danger as he did. He said to his companions who were with him after the accident, "Never do as I did." A sad thought is that he never made an open confession of being saved. So the voice may come from the dead, "Never delay to accept Christ as I did, while in health." The young man grew up a neighbor to the writer and attended his school a number of terms. He was always active and cheerful, but he is now gone and his spirit is in the hands of a just God. But the call comes to us all, "Be ready, for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of man cometh."

Funeral services at the church by John and Gideon Stoltzfus. Buried at the Blank burying ground.

"Dear husband, how I miss thee,
Since thy voice I hear no more,
Yet I hope I soon shall meet thee
Over on the other shore.

O dear father, how we miss thee,
For thy cheerful smiling face
Lightened all our cares and burdens
Which thou shar'dst with manly grace.

Wife and children all, I love you,
Will you with me glory share?
Only Jesus saves in heaven
Trust Him here and meet me there."

REED.-On the 6th of March 1894, in Mahoning Co., Ohio, of brain fever, Clayton, son of Elias W. and Mary Reed, aged 1 year and 14 days. Interment at the Oberholzer M. H., where services were held by Adam Brenneman and John Burkholder.

STOLTZFUS.-Jan. 20, 1894, near Lapps, Lancaster Co., Pa., of lagrippe which, after almost seven weeks suffering, suddenly went to the brain, Amos, beloved son of Bishop Gideon and Susanna Stoltzfus, aged 24 years, 1 month, 8 days. He bore his suffering very patiently; one of the last days of his sickness he told his older brother that since sick he had often been in prayer to God, not to be relieved of pain, but for forgiveness of sins, and he knew that God is merciful and that his redeemer liveth. He was a faithful brother in the Amish Mennonite church for five years, and his seat was seldom vacant. He leaves his deeply bereaved parents, two sisters and four brothers to mourn his early departure. Funeral services at the house by Daniel M. Stoltzfus and at the Millwood A.M. church by Daniel U. and Christian Stoltzfus, where a very large number of friends and companions gathered to pay the last tribute of respect to one we loved. Buried in the Millwood graveyard.

"Death, dear son, hath borne you from us,
And we take the last farewell
Of our dear and loving Amos,
Why he's gone we cannot tell.

Dearest brother, how we miss thee
When we see thy vacant chair
When we look around to see thee
Naught but sorrow see we there.

We'll not murmur, though we miss thee,
Rest thee now from all thy care,
Soon we hope with wings celestial
To be borne thy joys to share."
-His Sister L.M.Z.
