She was afflicted with heart trouble for several months. Six days before her death bowel trouble set in and she suffered great pain, but bore it all patiently. She was fully resigned to God's will and longed to go home to be with Jesus. She leaves husband, 5 sons, 4 daughters, 38 grandchildren, 2 sisters, and 3 brothers. We rejoice in a hope to meet her again. Funeral services were held at the Shantz Church by Orphan Wismer and Manassah Hallman. Interment in the adjoining cemetery.

    "I'm going to live with the angels so fair;
    I'll look for you children and wait for you there,
    Where tears do not flow and where death cannot come,
    Together we'll dwell in that beautiful home."
    A daughter.

    GRODY. - On the 30th of June, in Perth Co., Ont., Daniel Grody. He was born in the state of Pensylvania*, in 1816. In 1830 he came with his parents to Canada. In 1839 he was married to Elizabeth Wilfang, with whom he lived in matrimony over 50 years. He was the father of fourteen children. He leaves a widow and twelve children, 30 grand-children and 2 great-grandchildren. he suffered severely for about five months with dropsy, though he bore it all with great patience, for he had peace with God. Several days before his death he said to his family that he could already see the beautiful road he was to go: he saw the door of heaven standing open. He also saw the beautiful city of Jerusalem gleaming in its beauty. Also many other testimonies he had that his soul was in peace with God. So we need not mourn as those who have no hope, but feel assured that he is at rest. He was a member of the old Mennonite Church, and was buried on the 2d of July at the Hamstead meeting-house. Services by Tob. Bowman and Noah Stauffer, from Rom. 5: 1.
