      SNYDER. - On the 7th of March, 1891 in Waterloo Co., Ontario, of intermittent fever, Allan Snyder, aged 30 years, 10 months and 4 days. Buried on the 10th in the graveyard at Eby's church, Berlin, whither his remains were followed by a large concourse of friends. He leaves a sorrowing wife with three little children to mourn his early death. May a kind heavenly Father comfort and strengthen the bereaved widowed sister in this her deep affliction that she may put all her trust in her God who has promised to be a husband and protector to the widow. Funeral services in German by S. R. Knechtel from Matt. 24: 44 and in English by Peter Cober from Mark 8: 36. This death is another earnest appeal to all not to neglect the salvation of the immortal soul until death faces the victim and claims him as his own, whether prepared or unprepared.
