About a year ago Mr. Boshart's health began to fail but he was up and around most of the time until five weeks ago when he was taken to the University hospital at Iowa City where he was confined to his bed ever since. In spite of all that medical skill and loving hands could do, he quietly passed away on May 7, 1929 at the age of 78 years, 2 months and 24 days.
On March 30, 1873, he was united in marriage with Sophia Mehl with whom he was permitted to share life's joys and sorrows for more than 56 years. This union was blessed with seven children all of whom are still living.
Funeral services were held at the Wayland Mennonite church last Thursday afternoon in charge of the pastor who was assisted by Rev. J. J. Pritchard of the M. E. church. The services were attended by a large concourse of relatives and friends. Burial was made in the family lot in North Hill cemetery. -- Wayland News.
