• Notes

  Shantz.-Judith Shantz, at her brother's home near Carstairs, Alta., Nov. 22, of influenza; aged 36 y. 4 m. 15 d. This was indeed very sad, being the second death in the same family in less than two weeks. The departed sister has been a faithful member of the Mennonite Church for a number of years, and left bright hopes of being ready for the glory world beyond. She is survived by her mother, 3 brothers, 2 sisters and many friends. The Lord comfort the sorrowing ones. At this time we are made to think of the words of the poet: "Not now but in the coming years We'll reap the meaning of our tears, And then we'll understand." Memorial services to be held later. Burial services by N. R. Weber at the West Zion Mennonite Cemetery. Gospel Herald - Volume XI, Number 38 - December 19, 1918, pages 686 and 687
