Notes - Lehman.--Susannah, daughter and eldest child, of Abraham and Anna Wideman, was born Sept. 3, 1876, near Floradale, Ont.; died Oct. 16, 1932, at her home near Dodds, Alta.; aged 56 y. 1 m. 10 d. Death was caused by a complication of dropsy, enlarged heart, and diseases of the kidneys and liver. Sister Lehman was united in holy matrimony with J. K. Lehman at Sibley, Iowa, Feb. 9, 1898. This union was blessed with 8 children--5 boys and 3 girls, 1 girl (Christina) died in infancy. The sons are Joseph, Alvin, Oliver, David, and Melvin. The daughters are Irene (Mrs. Ezra Stauffer) and Mary (Mrs. Roy Roth). Her mother preceded her to the spirit world in 1925 and her father 11 months ago. With her husband she moved to Mayton, Alta., March 11, 1901, where they made their home until March 11, 1915. Then they moved to Hubbard, Oreg. There they resided until the Fall of 1917, when they returned to Mayton, Alta. The following spring (1918) they moved to the Tofield district, where they remained until the time of her departure. She leaves a loving husband, 5 sons, 3 daughters, 6 grandchildren, 5 brothers, and 3 sisters. Sister Lehman united with the Mennonite Church in the fall of 1901, of which she remained a faithful member to the time of her departure, faithfully discharging her duties as a minister's wife (her husband having been ordained to that office since 1906). Sister Lehman was much interested in caring for the sick. Many days and nights were spent in caring for sick persons. The Sister failed in health about a year ago, but her health was again restored sufficiently in the spring so that she was able to attend communion services. Late this summer she took a turn for the worse and during the latter weeks especially she suffered severe pain almost continually day and night. She expressed a desire to depart and be with Christ, stating that her Savior could not come too soon to take her Home. On Sunday afternoon her request was granted and she found rest. Funeral services were conducted at the Salem Mennonite Church, conducted by Bro. Isaac Miller of Mazeppa, Alta. (Texts Psa. 91; Jas. 4: 14), also by Bro Henry Harder of Didsbury, Alta. (Psa. 116: 15), assisted by the home ministers. Interment in cemetery near by.
