Detweiler.-On the 2d of October, 1906, in Elkhart, Ind., of kidney troubles, of which he suffered greatly for two weeks, Bro. John B. Detweiler, aged 73 Y., 5 M., 26 D. He was born in Waterloo Co., Ont., April 6, 1833. He had been a resident of Elkhart county for half a century and lived in Elkhart for the past six years. Bro. Detweiler is survived by his wife, four sons, three daughters, six sisters and tour brothers. Bro. Detweiler was a man of peace and so conducted himself that no one should be offended by him. He was truly one of the quiet people of the land, and his quiet, peaceable and friendly disposition won for him the esteem and friendship of the entire community, which was made manifest by the very large concourse of relatives and friends that had gathered at his funeral to show the last tribute of love to his memory. It is estimated that at least 1,000 people were present. Services were conducted at the home in Elkhart by John F. Funk and H. A. Anglemoyer, and at Yellow Creek M. H., where the burial took place, by Christian Weaver and David Burkholder, from the text, "For me to live is Christ; for me to die is gain" (Phil. 1: 21). The following friends from a distance were present: Noah Detweiler (a brother of the deceased) and daughter, and four sisters from Waterloo Co., Ont.; Mrs. Isaac Good (a sister) and her three sons and two daughters from Branch Co., Mich.; also two brothers of Sister Detweiler, Isaac Wenger and wife and Simeon Wenger of Caledonia, Kent Co., Mich. The Lord bless the bereaved family and give them grace to say with submissive hearts, "Thy will be done."
