      __________________________

      After years of suffering, patiently endured, the wife of Mr. Dan. S. Snider, who lives about 3 ½ miles south-east of Elmira, passed away on Monday. She was a daughter of the late David Reist and was highly respected by all who knew her. She leaves to mourn her loss a sorrowing husband and seven children, five sons and two daughters. Several children predeceased her. Her remains were interred in the Mennonite Cemetery at Bloomingdale yesterday (Wednesday) forenoon. The funeral was largely attended.

      Elmira Signet 3 May 1900

      ______________

      To The Memory Of Mrs. D. Snyder Died Apr. 30, 1900 One precious to our hearts has gone, The voice we loved is stilled. The place made vacant in our home Can never more be filled. Our Father in His wisdom called The boon His love had given; And though on earth the body lies, The soul is safe in Heaven.
