Nusbaum.-Sister Barbara Moyer, wife of Bro. Peter Nusbaum, was born in Ashland Co., Ohio, Aug. 10, 1830; died in Elkhart Co., Ind., Aug. 1, 1906; aged 75 Y., 11 M., 21 D. She suffered with stomach troubles for about a year, and during the past few months she fully realized that the end was drawing nigh. For about ten weeks she was not able to partake of any solid nourishment and gradually grew weaker until her strength was exhausted. She was a faithful member of the Mennonite church for many years and her trust in the Lord was unwavering. She leaves a deeply sorrowing husband, three sons and two daughters, fourteen grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren; also two brothers survive her. Bro. and Sister Nusbaum have lived together about fifty-six years and this was the first death in the family; all their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren are living. Funeral was held at the Yellow Creek Mennonite meeting-house, where services were conducted by George Lambert and John F. Funk from Heb. 9:27, 28. A very large concourse of people attended the funeral. May God comfort and bless the bereaved hearts who mourn her death, but they rejoice that they need not mourn as those who have no hope
