MAST Jacob Mast was born in Holmes Co., Ohio, Nov. 13, 1854, and died at his home near Elkhart, Ind., Nov. 11, 1904; aged 49 Y., 11 M., 28 D. He was married to Rebecca Ellen Plank, Dec. 7, 1879. To this union were born six children, three boys and three girls, all of whom with the deeply bereaved wife and mother and three brothers survive him. Bro. Mast united with the Amish Mennonite church in early life and remained a faithful and consistent member to the end. He had been troubled with valvular affection of the heart for some time, but during the last few weeks of his life he was able to be about and assist in the work about the place. On the morning of his death he arose feeling well and while starting the kitchen fire the summons came suddenly and as a shock to the family. He was a loving husband, a kind father and a good neighbor. We trust our loss is his eternal gain. Funeral services were held on Nov. 14th and were conducted at the house by Pre. Kregar, an old neighbor, at the church in Elkhart by D. H. Bender and J. S. Hartzler, assisted by J. F. Funk. Interment in the Prairie Street cemetery where services were conducted by Samuel Yoder.
