Funeral of John Engleman
Held at Presbyterian Church
John Engleman, our aged, well-known and esteemed citizen, sleeps the sleep that knows no awakening in this world, his death occurring at 5 o’clock Saturday morning, January 23rd., at his late home in Walnut, death coming as a result , chiefly, of general decline of health, due to advanced age.
Deceased was born in Union county, Pennsylvania, February 18th, 1835, making his age at time of death 74 years, 11 months and 5 days.
He was united in marriage to Henrietta Hartman in January 1856. To this union eight children were born, four of whom survive him. He moved to Freeport, Illinois in May 1856, where he resided until 1864, removing to Marshalltown, and in 1872 to Pottawattamie county, in 1881 to Walnut where he has since resided. Mrs. Engleman died December 26th, 1907, aged 69 years, 11 months and 26 days.
The funeral was held from the Presbyterian church, Monday at 2 p.m., conducted by pastor, Rev. D. H. Cramer, who preached from Luke’s Gospel the 17th chapter, the 20th and 21st verses, which text sets forth the doctrine that “the Kingdom of God is with you.” Very helpful and inspirational music was furnished by the choir which was composed of Miss Johnson, Miss Sager, Mrs. Allen, and Messrs Jay Thompson and Chester Boiler.
