Death of Mr. J. S. Zehr

Mr. John Zehr one of Wellesley's popular and enterprising young business men, died somewhat suddenly just before noon on Tuesday, the 15th inst. in his 32nd year. Since his early youth he has been the victim of a mild form of heart trouble which prevented him from doing heavy work but by thrift and ability he has built up a prosperous machine shop business which he managed successfully until this spring when he found the work too strenuous and his health failing. He was around town as usual up to the week before his death and was only confined to his bed for a day or two. He was an upright, honourable young man and has gained the respect and confidence of all who knew him. The sympathy of the community goes out to his wife and three small children. The funeral occurs to-morrow (Friday) morning at 9 o'clock, the interment taking place at the Third line Mennonite church cemetery near Freebourn's school.

John S. Zehr.

This industrious citizen became the successor of Mr. John Weismiller in the chopping and cider mill on Nov. 22, 1897, and has been doing a successful business ever since. He was born near Wellesley in 1874, and is the son of Mr. Christian Zehr, one of the well known farmers of this section. The cider and chopping mill was established by Weismiller about twelve. years ago. The cider mill is one of the best equipped and most convenient in the county. It has a capacity of turning out about 2,000 gallons per day and during the heavy apple crop of 1896 its total output was something like 50,000 gallons. One advantage in this mill is that Mr. Zehr, not having his time taken up in other business has it constantly under his personal supervision and therfore can guarantee good honest work in every particular. Patrons in case of a visit do not have to wait an unusual length of time, everything being so conveniently arranged as to render the grinding of a load of apples in the least possible time. As he makes a specialty of this line of work he is certainly worthy of the farmers' patronage. He has ample water power which is furnished by an unusually powerful spring nearly a mile west of the mill, the water being conveyed through a race about 90 rods long. There is a ten-inch giant wheel. Mr. Zehr worked for five years as a cabinet maker in the states and is a natural mechanic and is not compelled to call in an outsider in case something goes wrong with his machinery. He has now about completed a dust blower for a separator that is said to be a very handy contrivance. His chopping mill is capable of turning out from ten to fifteen bags per hour and is ready for work every day in the year. In connection with the chopping and cider mill he has a lathe and hand saw, and if necessary, should he have a call from a patron for anything in the sash, blind or screen line he can accommodate him

Mr. Zehr is making considerable improvement in the cider mill and by the time the apple season comes on he will be thoroughly prepared to give the best of satisfaction and do the work promptly. In this particular be especially invites the attention of the farmers who will have large apple crops this fall. Those who have not previously done so, but will give him a trial will find that he is fully prepared as stated.

Notes:

Jutzi.-Jacob B., son of Samuel and Catherine (Brenneman) Jutzi, was born April 11. 1882, in Perth Co., Ont.; died at his home in Baden, Ont., Nov. 28, 1937, of heart disease and complications; aged 55 y. 7 m. 17 d. He united with the Amish Mennonite Church in his youth and remained faithful to the end. In the year 1906 he united in holy matrimony with Leah, daughter of the late Samuel and Mattie (Lebold) Bender. To this union were born 1 daughter (Salome, Mrs. Christian Zehr), and 3 sons (Samuel, Emerson, and Alvin). They lived together 9 y. 10 m. 18 d. On Sept. 19, 1917, he was united in holy matrimony to Fannie, daughter of Christian and Leah (Zehr) Gascho. To this union was born 1 daughter (Ada Leah). He had been in poor health for almost a year; had not been able to work since May. Several times for a period of 10 days he was confined to his bed for rest, which always seemed to do him good; but he gradually became weaker. Nov. 7 he took a turn for the worse and was confined to bed for 3 weeks, from which he never arose. Having enlargement of the heart, pneumonia set in, and on the 23rd he had a paralytic stroke. He was conscious almost to the end. He bore his suffering with much patience, and that sweet smile when one of his family would come near him, will never be forgotten. Although at times he was very delirious, the Christ-life would shine in him. He had been a Sunday-school teacher for many years and the Bible was his chief reading. He was fully resigned to the will of God, but often expressed his grief to leave his family behind. With a wave of his hand he bade us all good-bye and on a Sunday noon he left us for the great beyond. He leaves his bereaved widow, 2 daughters, 3 sons, 1 grandson, all of Baden; 2 brothers (Solomon of Albany, Oreg., and Daniel of Milverton, Ont.), 1 sister (Mary, Mrs. Ends Schultz of Milverton). His brother John, and sister Catherine, and his parents predeceased him. Funeral services were held Dec. 1, at his late residence in Baden, conducted by Peter Boshart, and at Steinmans church of which he was a member, conducted by the home bishop, Moses 0. Jantzi in German (Text, Psa. 39 : 4, 5) and Moses Schantz in English (Text, II Cor. 4: 17). Burial in adjoining cemetery.
