__________________

Peter B. Bowman

Last week death removed, from this district, one of the best known and most highly respected personages in our rural life, Mr. Peter Bowman, who lived at Floradale.

Mr. Bowman was raised on a farm between St. Jacobs and Heidelberg, and when yet a young man he removed to a farm a short distance north of Floradale where he lived until several years ago when he retired to a smaller place just south of that village. Mr. Bowman was a model type of that sturdy, honourable and well-meaning class of people to whom this district owes much of its progress and stability. As a friend and neighbor he was steadfast and obliging. As a citizen, his character was unimpeachable. As a husband and father, he was kind and affectionate, and as a Christian, he endeavored to live up to his professions. He was straightforward, modest, honourable and trustworthy. As a consequence, he was respected by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. For many years he was elder of the Old Mennonite Church. He was noted for his liberal views and tolerant disposition.

His death leaves a vacancy in his sphere of action difficult to fill. Deceased has, for several years, been failing in health and suffered a slight paralytic stroke a considerable time before his death. Though generally able to be about, he could perform his duties only with difficulty being subject to weakness mentally and bodily. It was, therefore, not surprising to his friends to hear that he had been suddenly taken away by heart failure. Deceased had reached the age of 71 years, 4 months and 13 days.

He leaves to mourn their loss an aged widow, three sons and four daughters, namely: Joshua, of Alberta; Mrs. Norman F. Martin, of Wallenstein; Jonas, of Alberta; Mrs. David F. Martin, of Wallenstein; Miss Esther, at home; Mrs. Aaron Martin, of Woolwich, and Peter, at home.

________________________

Death's call came quite suddenly to Mr. David P. Martin on Wednesday morning at his home on Church Street. He was sitting on the verandah alone when Mrs. Martin hearing a noise went out to see what was the matter. He just gave a groan and fell over and passed away without regaining consciousness.

David P. Martin was born near St. Jacobs in 1850. In 1875 he was married to Rebecca Gingrich who now mourns the loss of a kind husband. Five children also survive, namely Bennevel, married and living near Elmira, William, unmarried, Peter, in Peel, Mary Ann, (Mrs. Solomon Lichty, Elmira) and David. Several brothers also survive.

The family came to Elmira from Lexington six years ago. About 5 years ago the deceased was seriously ill with dropsy of the heart, but recovered sufficiently to be able to work most of the time until seven weeks ago when the old trouble forced him to quit work. Last week he felt able to put in a few days' work at the factory. But this week he did not feel so well, and the end came sooner than expected.

The funeral will be held on Saturday morning, 9 o'clock, to the Mennonite cemetery for burial and service.
