Notes:

Jacob Eix

With the passing of Jacob Eix on Saturday morning the town lost a well-known and highly respected citizen. Mr. Eix was almost 80 years old and during his residence in Elmira, lasting about a third of a century, his interest in others and his kindly nature made him many warm friends.

He was born in Hawkesville on June 26^th, 1853, almost 80 years ago. After his marriage in 1878 he moved to a farm two miles west of St. Jacobs where he lived for seven years. He then moved to the 4^th line of Peel where he farmed for thirteen years. Here he met with an accident on the farm of James Bruce. While threshing he slipped on the horse power and was caught in the cogs of the machine, which necessitated the amputation of his leg. He could no longer farm so moved to Elmira, living on Church street for a number of years and later on William St. In all he resided here for 35 years. He suffered many years of illness but through all he carried his cross in a patient and Christian manner.

Surviving are his widow, four daughters, Mrs. C. Percy Ruppel, Mrs. H. W. Zilliax, Mrs. W. Schedewitz, all of Elmira, and Mrs. J. C. Moebus of Kitchener, and one son, Roy J., of Elmira. Three brothers, H. B. Eix of Elmira, Rev. S. B. Eix of Fillmore, N.Y. and Charles B. Eix of Detroit and four sisters, Mrs. Louis Beisel, Mrs. Amos Eby, Mrs. John Ritter of Elmira and Mrs. Jacob Schmetzer of Kitchener, also survive.

The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock from his late residence, 8 William St., to St. Paul's Lutheran Church, where the pastor, Rev. F. Malinsky, conducted the funeral service. Burial was made in the Elmira Cemetery.

Six nephews acted as pall-bearers. They were: Charles Ritter, Archie Ritter, Theodore Beisel, Norman Beisel, Allen Eix and Milton Eix.

Among those who attended the funeral were: Mrs. William Duench, Mrs. Kaster, Mrs. Charles Wolfenberg, Mr. W. Derbecker, Mr. Lehnen, Mrs. Westfall, Mr. Robert Israel, Mr. John Israel and Sylvester Israel, Miss Freda and Emma Israel, Mrs. A. Fischer and son Roy, all of Kitchener; Rev. and Mrs. S. B.
