Notes:

Shantz.-Judith Shantz, at her brother's home near Carstairs, Alta., Nov. 22, of influenza; aged 36 y. 4 m. 15 d. This was indeed very sad, being the second death in the same family in less than two weeks. The departed sister has been a faithful member of the Mennonite Church for a number of years, and left bright hopes of being ready for the glory world beyond. She is survived by her mother, 3 brothers, 2 sisters and many friends. The Lord comfort the sorrowing ones. At this time we are made to think of the words of the poet:

"Not now but in the coming years
We'll reap the meaning of our tears,
And then we'll understand."

"Shantz.-Death came as a welcome relief to Bro. Jonathan. Shantz of Carstairs, Alta., who passed away Dec. 14, 1914; aged 65 y. 8 m. 28 d. The deceased was born March 16, 1849, in Waterloo Co. Ont., where he grew to manhood and on Oct. 27, 1876, was married to Caroline Bingeman. To this union were born 9 children, 2 of them having died while quite young. The remaining ones are in the immediate vicinity and at home. In 1901 he moved with his family to a farm near Carstairs, Alberta, where he has since resided to the time of his death. He has been a member of the Mennonite Church for quite a number of years, and when health permitted was seldom missing at the regular services.

Jonathan Shantz's Dam.

In reference to the general topography of the village of Winterbourne in my last letter I omitted mention of the dam which confines the waters of Cox's Creek. It is the property of Mr. Jonathan Shantz, and contributes the power that operates his saw mill and chopping machine. It is undoubtedly one of the largest confined bodies of water in Waterloo county. The village derives advantages from it in more ways than one. While it adds considerably to the picturesqueness of the village it affords good fishing for the inhabitants thereof when the season is on. In the spring it is alive with chubs, suckers, red fins and bass. The latter abound in large number and many are often caught weighing from three to four pounds. Its generous owner permits free access to it by the public, and consequently the average villager whose beef or pork supply has become diminished or who feels the want of a change from that sort of diet can in a short time with hook and line procure choice specimens for the frying pan. The law prohibiting the catching of bass at this season of the year was the only obstacle that prevented your correspondent from making the attempt to land a few of the big fellows to form a savory feast for the table of the editor of the CHRONICLE.

In addition to this advantage afforded to the village Mr. Shantz is the most prominent in giving it some industrial life. He was born near St. Jacobs, March 16, 1849, and is a son of Simon Shantz, Sr. When he was about a year old his parents moved from his birth place to Wilmot where they lived about 45 years He purchased the saw mill here in 1895 from his brother Ezra, who had purchased it from one David Clemens, and has since added a cider and chopping mill. The saw will has a capacity of producing about 8,000 feet of lumber per day, the chopper 200 bags per day and the cider mill about 2,000 gallons per day. He also owns a farm of twenty acres near the village, from which he derives plenty of the necessaries of life for his family. He has been in some way connected in the operation of a saw-mill since he was fourteen years of age, and it is altogether likely that he will follow that vocation as long as he lives, or at least while the timber continues to hold out. Mr. Shantz was married about twenty-two years ago to Miss Caroline, daughter of Mr. John Bingeman, of near Washington, Nine children have been born to them, two of whom are dead. They are of the Mennonite faith and Reform in politics. The family lives in one of the venerable landmarks of the village. It is the old stone tavern which was built in 1836 by the late John Tyson, who was its landlord for two or three years and afterwards was kept by Henry Wenglin and others. It was a famous resort for the travelling public years ago. It is a substantial stone structure, but save its convenient location near the public highway, it does not show signs of having once been a public house. Mr. Shantz is a popular citizen and a man entitled to the respect and esteem of all who meet him or have business transactions with him.

Shantz.--Sister Caroline Burgiman*, widow of the late Jonathan Shantz of near Carstairs, Alta., died Dec. 3, 1927. She was born in 1855; aged 72 y. In 1876 she was married to Jonathan Shantz and 9 children blessed this union. In 1901 Bro. and Sister Shantz came West with their family and settled on the home still occupied by Sister Shantz at her death. Bro. Shantz died in 1914 and three children died a few years after. Two children had passed away while still in the East, which leaves 4 to mourn the loss of a kind mother (Urias, Jonathan, Verna, Mrs. Elmer Shantz, and Edna, Mrs. Carl Semberg); also six sisters and 3 brothers. Sister Shantz was a faithful member of the Mennonite Church and will be greatly missed. She was very patient in her last illness, and while she suffered greatly she was anxious that God's will should be done in her life. She was laid to rest Dec. 4, in the West Zion Cemetery beside her husband and children. Services at the house were conducted by Bro. Abe Riest and at the church by Bro. Isaac Miller and Bro. H. J. Harder. May God comfort the bereaved.

JOHN BINGEMAN

The subject of this sketch needs no formal introduction to the people of Blenheim township, for there is probably not a farmer in the township who is more familiarly known. He has been "through the mill" in the way of hard work and hardships, to express to in the common phrase of mankind. But he is now quietly enjoying the fruits of his many years of labors, living a retired life on his farm two miles east of Plattsville and a fourth of a mile west of Washington, postoffice. The old stone house which was erected in 1855, stands upon an elevation from which a splendid view of the surrounding country can be had, the quaint hamlet of Washington being in full view. It is indeed a most inviting abode to pass the declining years of one's life.

Mr. Bingeman was born in the village of Bridgeport, Waterloo county, in 1826, and is therefore in the seventy- third year of his age, as his jovial disposition and ruddy countenance would indicate him to be man not more than in the middle age of life. He was formerly a shoemaker by trade. In 1851 he came to Blenheim and took up the home he owns and occupies. The farm comprises 150 acres and is one of the choice tracts of land of Oxford Counties. When he took possession much of it was yet under virgin forest, and all the building now on the premises were erected by him in addition to other improvements.

Prior to coming here in 1848, Mr. Bingeman was married to Judith, daughter of the late David and Leah Snider. The results of this union were sixteen children. The mother died March, 1873, in the forty first year of her age. On September 15, 1874, Mr. Bingeman was married again, his second wife being Elizabeth, daughter of Abraham B Clemens. She was born May 8, 1835, and died July 30, 1890. The fruits of the latter union was one daughter, Veronica who has already reached womanhood and is now the sole comfort and mainstay of the home which has been credit of the guiding influences of a mother. According to this record Mr. Bingeman is entitled to the credit of being the father of seventeen children. Four of the family are deceased.

David S, the oldest son, is on the home farm; Aaron, Julia and Lucy are living in Michigan; Angeline, the eldest daughter, is the wife of Samuel Cressman who is about to remove to Calgary, Man; Mary Ann is the wife of Jacob Shantz, of near Platteville; Elias and Isaac are farming in Wilmot; Titus is living near New Dundee; Caroline is the wife of Jonathan Shantz,, of Winterbourne; Elizabeth is the wife of Aaron Rosenberger, of Berlin; Emma is the wife of Rufus McNickel of Plattsville.

David S., the eldest son, who bas charge of the home place, has a wife and family of four children. They reside in the old stone portion of the residence, a brick addition having been erected for the accommodation of the father. Like the latter the son is having good success as a former and takes particular pride in horse flesh. He has several fine roadsters and a match span of blacks that have and would again give a good account in a show ring. Everything is convenient about the premises, abundance of pure water being furnished the horses and cattle by a hydraulic ram from a never failing spring in the vicinity. In addition to large quantities of grain, roots, etc., the family is amply supplied with choice fruits. This season they put up seventy barrels of prime apples for export. David S. has had charge of the farm about ten years. It would be a moral lesson to a good many similarly situated to note the good will and perfect harmony predominating in this home. The family espouses the Mennonite faith.

The old gentleman is a staunch Reformer, but outside of casting his ballot when an election requires it he keeps aloof from the shady arena of politics. His genial manner and friendly disposition towards all whom he meets has made his friends legion. He believes in enjoying life while life instead and now in his declining years to enjoy the benefits of that which he accumulated by the sweat of his brow in the years of his earlier manhood. He is still in robust health and promises well to reach beyond the octogenarian limit. You will invariably find him in good humor, a characteristic that accounts for his healthy physical condition. The wish of the CHRONICLE scribe is that he may for many years more continue to enjoy a life of ease of body and contentment of mind.

Notes:

Joseph Shantz, "the youngest son of Isaac and Barbara (Reiff) Shantz, was born near Pottstown, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, June 24, 1795. In May, 1808, his mother, with her three youngest children, David, Veronica, and Joseph, who was then only thirteen years of age, moved to Canada and arrived in Waterloo County in June. On the 21st or 22nd of the same month she took possession of her bush farm, being composed of part of lot No. 52, German Company's Tract. About six acres were cleared and cleaned and a log house put up, but this house was without roof and floor until their coming. The lumber was purchased in Galt and the first thing the party had to do on their arrival was to put on the board roof and lay the floor, and then the house was ready to move into. By four o'clock in the afternoon everything was put in its proper place and everybody felt happy and well at home except Joseph who stood outside the house and wept bitterly, being sick of the wild and romantic life and wishing himself home at Pottstown again. So much did he weep that his mother came out to speak words of comfort to him, upon which he said, 'O mother, what made you leave our beautiful home and come here where there is nothing but bush and flies? Why had you listen to Christian? (His brother who settled here in 1806 always spoke well of Waterloo) It is not at all as he used to say.' The mother, listening to her son's lamentable tale, said, 'Joseph, now do quit crying and come into the house with me or else I shall have homesick like you and begin to cry.' They both went into the house and that ended 'Homesick'. (This story Mr. Joseph Shantz related to the writer in the year 1869) Here he was raised and on July 8th, 1817, he was married to Catherine, daughter of Joseph and Barbara (Eby) Schneider. She was born February 12, 1799, and died September 15th, 1881. Soon after their marriage they moved on their farm, being composed of west half of lot No. 9, German Company's Tract, now occupied by their son, Moses. Here they resided until 1849 when they moved on the farm being composed of west half of lot No. 26, German Company's Tract, now in possession of his sons, Joseph and Menno. Here he built a dam and erected a sawmill and for quite a number of years did a large business in sawing during the spring months. After his sons, Joseph and Menno, were married, he divided his farm into two and gave each one about half, Joseph retaining the part with the old buildings and the sawmill. Here he died, March 19th, 1882, six months after the decease of his wife. They had a family of seven children"
