He was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. Deceased was born at Uterhausen, Alsfoldt, Hessen-Darmstadt, Germany, on Sept. 26th, 1827. When yet a lad of 10 he struck out for himself, taking the then long trip across the ocean and landing in Waterloo. Ten years later he was married to Miss Kate Weber. The young couple located in East Zorra, near Cassel, and after a time they moved to a farm which he bought near Bamberg. Five years later they moved to the farm on the west hank of the pond, in this village where they have lived ever since. His wife, aged and blind, survives him, besides a family of ten children: John, at Gretna, Man.; Charles, on the home farm ; Philip, in Berlin ; Mrs. John Kaufmann, here ; Jacob, in Baden ; Mrs. Louis Fleischhauer, here; Louis, in New Hamburg; Henry, in Baden ; William, at Gretna, Man , and Miss Emma, with her mother at home, besides two that died in infancy.

We are called upon this week to record the death of Catherine Weber, widow of the late John Miller, which occurred at her home in this village on Sunday evening last, aged 75 years, 11 months and one day. Along with her husband, who died in October last, she has been a resident of this village for very many years, and is sincerely mourned by a large number of relatives and friends. The old lady has been blind for the past few years, and since her husband's death last October she has been gradually failing so that the end was not unexpected. The funeral occurred yesterday afternoon, the remains being laid away to rest at the cemetery of the Miss. Lutheran Church, of which she had been a member since it was organized. A vast assemblage listened to the impressive funeral sermon delivered by Rev. Mr. Lochner on the occasion.
