    Notes:

    Binder - Rachel Dendels was born in Germany July 2, 1853; died in Breslau, Ontario, Jan. 1, 1935, in her 82nd year. When she was about a year and half of age she came to Canada with her parents, Christian and Mary Dedels. On March 8, 1870, she was united in marriage to Andrew Binder, who predeceased her 15 years. To this union were born 8 daughters, four having preceded her in death. There remain to mourn the departure of a loving mother, 4 daughters (Mina, Rose and Linda at home, and Nancy, Mrs. Ira Buschert, Kitchener, Ont.), two grandchildren, and a host of relatives and friends. Sister Binder was converted 34 years ago, united with the Mennonite Church, and kept the faith until her Lord took her home. The last 14 years of her life were spent as an invalid in much suffering. Her affliction was arthritis, and very seldom that she was free from pain. Yet she bore her sufferings patiently, wondering sometimes why she should be so afflicted, but always looking forward to the time when she would be released to enjoy her heavenly home where there is no pain. The funeral was held Jan. 3 from her late home in Breslau, to the Cressman Mennonite Church for services and the adjoining cemetery for interment. Text chosen by Sister Binder was Phil. 1: 21. Ministers, Bros. Jonas Snider and Oscar Burkholder.

    "God knew that she was suffering,
    That the hills were hard to climb,
    So He closed her weary eyelids
    And whispered 'Peace be thine.'
    Away in the beautiful hills of God,
    By the valley of peace so fair,
    Some time, some day, we know not when,
    We will meet our loved on there."

    Notes:

    KNORR. - On the morning of October 3d, 1899, near Kossuth, Ont., of consumption, at the home of her parents, Sister Annie Knorr, daughter of Andrew and Rachel Binder, and widow of the late Jacob Knorr, who preceded her to the spirit world, he being preceded by their only child. Thus the entire young family has gone to try the realities of the beyond. She was aged 24 years, 5 months and 23 days. Buried on the 5th of Oct. in the David Eby cemetery, near Waterloo. Funeral services by Jacob Woolner, Sr. at the house and at the meeting house by Noah Stauffer in German from Isaiah 57: 2, and by J. S. Woolner in English from Phil. 1: 21. She leaves parents and five sisters besides other relatives and friends to mourn her early departure, yet they need not mourn as those that have no hope. She went home rejoicing in a crucified Redeemer. She remained conscious to the end. Nearly an hour before her departure she said, "Good-bye all, now I am going home." What a consolation for us when we stand by the dying and see that they have a strong arm to lean upon through the valley of death. May God comfort the bereaved ones in their sore affliction and may they look forward to the time of their departure that when life's work is ended they with us and we with them may lay our armor by and meet our loved ones who have gone before.

    Notes:

    SNIDER. - Manda, daughter of Andrew and Rachel Binder, was born on May 23, 1890; died at her home in Waterloo on June 9, 1915. She was united in marriage to Herbert B. Snider on Sept. 23, 1914. Their union on earth was of short duration. The separation when it came was sudden and unexpected. We wonder why God should call so suddenly, but we are led to believe that the life in this world is very frail at its best, and entirely in the hands of God. Bro. and Sister Snider were very happy while they were together. Her kind disposition, winning ways, and sunshiny manner, both in her own home, and the home of her parents, makes her departure an aching void and extremely hard for the bereaved ones to bear. Sister Snider confessed her Savior seven years ago, united with the Mennonite Church, and was a faithful member until death. She was very much concerned about the welfare of the Church and often expressed her anxiety for those that were not in the fold. We have every reason to believe that she is now in glory reaping the reward of her faithfulness. She leaves to mourn her sudden departure a grief-stricken husband, father, mother, 4 sisters, and a host of relatives and friends.
