Greenawalt - On the 28th of November on the Haw Patch, La Grange, Co, Ind, Catharine, wife of Adam Greenawalt, aged 68 years, 9 months and 26 days.

Sister Greenawalt was one of the mothers in Israel that will be much missed in the community, the church and the family. The Lord graciously kept her to a ripe old age, permitted her to see all her family of thirteen children grow up, married and settled down in life, nearly all have confessed Christ.

These with 51 grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren, nearly all living number her posterity. The aged father and husband is feeble and almost blind. And will sadly miss those willing hands, ever so ready to minister to his wants, May we not hope that when he leaves this, to him, dark world, he may behold her in the clear sunshine of heaven? Services in German by Jonathan Kurtz of Ligonier, and in English by J S Coffman of Elkhart.
