On the 7th of September, 1892, in Livingston Co., Ill., of cancer in the stomach of which she suffered very severely for about 18 months, Susanna Wenger, wife of Samuel Grabill, aged 68 years, 9 months and 12 days. She was married to her surviving husband in Aug. 1846. In 1856 they moved to Grundy Co., Ill., and in the fall of 1858 to Livingston Co., where they have since lived. She leaves a sorrowing husband, 10 children and 53 grandchildren. Eleven grandchildren and one great-grandchild departed this life before her. She united with the Mennonite church in her native state, Virginia, and lived a faithful, consistent Christian life until her death, expressing a desire to depart and be with Christ which is far better. We hope through the grace and mercy of God she has found a resting place in the blessed mansions prepared for the children of God. Funeral services were held at the Mennonite church in Cullom by J. F. Funk of Elkhart, Ind., from Rev. 14:13.
