    Bauman - Mary (Martin) Bauman was born in Waterloo Co., March 15, 1856; died at her home near St. Jacobs, Ont., April 14, 1935; aged 79 y. 30 d. She was married to Seth Bauman, who predeceased her 19 years ago. She was a loving and faithful mother, always deeply concerned for the spiritual welfare of her children and grandchildren, that they may all, without the loss of one, be gathered in the happy home above. She was sick a very short time, but suffered intensely for one week with abdominal flu. Her desire was to be with the Lord and leave this body of suffering. Often she would repeat, "Ach Gott ich bin durch Christi Blut, Maches nur mitt meine ende Gute." Our loss is her gain. She leaves 1 son (Menno of Hawkesville) and 4 daughters: Elizabeth (Mrs. Suenus Martin of Stanton, Mich.); Lovina (Mrs. Menno Horst of St. Jacobs); Mary (Mrs. Allen Knorr of Waterloo); Lydia (Mrs. Simon Martin of Kitchener). One daughter (Anna) and one son (Joseph) predeceased her. Funeral services were conducted at Martin's Mennonite Church, by Urias Martin and Jesse Bauman. Texts, Rev. 21: 4,; II Tim. 4: 6-8; Heb. 9: 27, 18.

    "'Tis hard to part with Mother dear,
    No more to see her here,
    But yet we're glad if God saw best
    To end her trouble and give her rest.
    In heaven to reign with angels fair,
    May our names too be written there;
    Then we again may each other meet,
    And walk with her the golden street.
    "
