Wyse.-- Sister Catherine (Roth), wife of Bro. Peter Wyse, was born in France, May 14, 1850; died at her home or [sic] heart failure, July 2, 1909; aged 59 y. 1 m. 18 d. At the age of about six years she came with her parents to Henry Co., Iowa, and lived here until death. On April 6, 1876, she was married to Bro. Wyse, and this union was blessed with 9 children, 7 daughters and 2 sons. One daughter preceded her mother to the other shore in her infancy. She leaves to mourn her departure, a sorrowing husband, 6 daughters, 2 sons, and 4 grandchildren, also 2 brothers, 1 sister and a host of friends. We need not mourn as those who have no hope, as she accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Savior in her youth, and remained a faithful member of the A. M. Church until the end.
Funeral services were held July 4 at the Sugar Creek Church, conducted by the brethren S. Gerig in German and Simon Gingerich in English. Her body was laid to rest in the cemetery near by. Text, Heb. 4:9.
