    BAUMAN. - Enoch S. Bauman, eldest son of Martin H. and Rebecca (Shantz) Bauman, was born July 18, 1860; died Jan. 16, 1918; aged 57y. 5m. 29d. In 1883 he was married to Veronica Martin, which union was blessed with 11 sons and 2 daughters, of whom 3 sons have preceded him. For several months he had been failing in health, and on Nov. 21 an operation was attempted but not performed, because the number of cancers they found at once showed that it would be of no avail. From that time on he gradually failed until the end. He took it all very patiently, was completely resigned to the will of the Lord, and looked forward with joy to the glad reunion with the many loved ones gone before. Nearly 24 years ago he was ordained to the ministry, and filled his office faithfully, preaching the Word with great earnestness and power. He occupied a place that will be hard to fill, and a sorrowing congregation craves the prayers of the Church at large. A sorrowing companion, 8 sons, 2 daughters, step-mother, 5 brothers, 1 sister, with a large number of relatives and friends remain to mourn his departure. Funeral Jan. 19, 1918, conducted at the house and grave by Abram Gingerich, and at St. Jacobs Mennonite Church by Oscar Snider and Jonas Snider. Menno M. Brubacher

    Bauman.- Veronica E. Bowman (nee Martin) was born May 18, 1863; died Aug. 27, 1922; aged 59 y. 3 m. 10 d. She was married to the late preacher Enoch S. Bauman with whom she lived 35 years, he having preceded her about 5 years. Strong in the faith, hopeful and cheerful, she was a great help to her husband in his responsible calling, and to all others with whom she came in contact. She united with the Mennonite Church early in life and remained true to the end leaving a bright hope and kind words of advice, for which we are thankful indeed as well as for her exemplary life, for she was a model of industry, sobriety, and separation from the world. She was the mother of 13 children, 8 sons and 2 daughters of whom survive, as well as 2 grandchildren, 2 brothers, 5 sisters, and a host of relatives and friends. Funeral services Sept. 1 at St. Jacobs Mennonite Church conducted by Bro. Abr. Gingerich from Jno. 19: 27 and Moses M. Brubacher from Jas. 4: 14.Transcriber's note: Bauman was also spelled as Bowman in the original.

    Well Known Berlin Manufacturer Succumbs on Saturday, After Long Illness

    Was in His 69 Year


    One of Berlin's oldest and highly esteemed citizens, passed away about 6 o'clock on Saturday evening, in the person of Mr. Isaac E. Shantz, the well-known senior member of the firm of I. E. Shantz & Co., at his home on College street. The deceased suffered from congestion of the lungs at the time of his death and had been in poor health during the last ten months. The late I. E. Shantz was born on May 23rd, 1839 and was a son of the late Samuel Shantz, who owned one of the finest farms in the county on the Petersburg-Road, three miles west of Berlin. After securing a common school education and working on his fathers farm, for some years, he entered a mercantile business in Bridgeport and also became interested in several successful manufacturing industries. About fifteen years ago he moved to Berlin and after conducting the store now occupied by Beck & Schell for some years, he purchased the foundry which he has been conducting, for the last ten or twelve years. The deceased was of a quiet and unassuming disposition and while he took a keen interest in municipal affairs of Berlin and was a member of the Town Council, in 1897. He was a devoted Christian man and was highly respected by all with whom he came in contact. He was married to Magdalena Eby in 1860, who survives him and we regret to state, is quite ill. There are five children; Josiah, Berlin, Edmund, Waterloo Tp., Mrs. Amos Groff, Waterloo, Mrs. (Rev,) C. R. Miller, Berlin and Milton B., who will have the sincere sympathy of the entire community. The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon, at 1: 30 o'clock, to the East End Mennonite church and Cemetery.
