    Notes:

    Jutzi.-Jacob B., son of Samuel and Catherine (Brenneman) Jutzi, was born April 11. 1882, in Perth Co., Ont.; died at his home in Baden, Ont., Nov. 28, 1937, of heart disease and complications; aged 55 y. 7 m. 17 d. He united with the Amish Mennonite Church in his youth and remained faithful to the end. In the year 1906 he united in holy matrimony with Leah, daughter of the late Samuel and Mattie (Lebold) Bender. To this union were born 1 daughter (Salome, Mrs. Christian Zehr), and 3 sons (Samuel, Emerson, and Alvin). They lived together 9 y. 10 m. 18 d. On Sept. 19, 1917, he was united in holy matrimony to Fannie, daughter of Christian and Leah (Zehr) Gascho. To this union was born 1 daughter (Ada Leah). He had been in poor health for almost a year; had not been able to work since May. Several times for a period of 10 days he was confined to his bed for rest, which always seemed to do him good; but he gradually became weaker. Nov. 7 he took a turn for the worse and was confined to bed for 3 weeks, from which he never arose. Having enlargement of the heart, pneumonia set in, and on the 23rd he had a paralytic stroke. He was conscious almost to the end. He bore his suffering with much patience, and that sweet smile when one of his family would come near him, will never be forgotten. Although at times he was very delirious, the Christ-life would shine in him. He had been a Sunday-school teacher for many years and the Bible was his chief reading. He was fully resigned to the will of God, but often expressed his grief to leave his family behind. With a wave of his hand he bade us all good-bye and on a Sunday noon he left us for the great beyond. He leaves his bereaved widow, 2 daughters, 3 sons, 1 grandson, all of Baden; 2 brothers (Solomon of Albany, Oreg., and Daniel of Milverton, Ont.), 1 sister (Mary, Mrs. Ends Schultz of Milverton). His brother John, and sister Catherine, and his parents predeceased him. Funeral services were held Dec. 1, at his late residence in Baden, conducted by Peter Boshart, and at Steinmans church of which he was a member, conducted by the home bishop, Moses 0. Jantzi in German (Text, Psa. 39 : 4, 5) and Moses Schantz in English (Text, II Cor. 4: 17). Burial in adjoining cemetery.
