Notes:

Litwiller. - Jacob Litwiller was born near St. Agatha, Ont., March 7, 1874; aged 54 y. 2 m. 26 d. On Sept. 22, 1896 he was married to Rachael Jantzi. This union was blessed with 7 children. He leaves his widow, an adopted daughter (Eleanor), Nelson and Edna (Mrs. A. Swartzendruber - missionaries in South America), Reuben, Milton, Ella, Delton, 7 grandchildren, 2 brothers, and four sisters. He was confined to his bed for about five weeks. Death was due to complications, but his main sickness was bacterial endacarditis. During his illness he spent many wakeful nights, meditating with God, and during unconscious hours his talk was always of spiritual matters. He was a lover of song, and during his days of sickness he asked all those present to sing for him; leaving a blessed assurance of the eternal hope. In his younger years he united with the Amish Mennonite Church of which he was a faithful member until death. Father's place in our home can never be filled. His kind disposition commanded all to love him and the loss of his counsel is heavy to us. Funeral services June 6 at the house by Christian Gascho, and at the A. M. Church near St. Agatha, by C. F. Derstine, Oscar Burkholder, and Peter Nofziger. Interment in the adjoining cemetery.

"Deep in our hearts lies a picture,
Of a loved one laid to rest;
In memories frame we will keep it,
Because he was one of the best.
Friends may think we have forgotten,
When at times they see us smile;
But they little know the heart aches,
That the smile hides all the while. The Family.
