    • Obit:
      Roth.--Samuel W. Roth was born Feb. 28, 1874, at Noble, Iowa; died at his home at Shickley, Nebr., Nov. 21, 1932; aged 58 y. 8 m. 26 d. After a lingering illness of about 6 months he died of heart failure. He was united in marriage to Mary Schrock on Feb. 27, 1895. To this union were born 2 sons and 8 daughters. His oldest daughter, 3 grandchildren, father and 1 sister preceded him in death. He leaves his loving companion, 2 sons, 7 daughters, 3 grandchildren, 3 sons-in-law, 1 daughter-in-law, his aged mother, 3 brothers, 9 sisters and a host of relatives and friends. He united with the Mennonite Church in his youth and remained faithful until the Lord called him to his reward. All was done that loving hands could do but the Lord thought better and took him home. His desire was to go to heaven and that his family follow his footsteps that they may meet him there. 
      "Dear Father so suddenly passed to yonder shore; 
      Here on earth we shall greet him no more, 
      Though our hearts do ache 
      Till they nearly break, 
      For one whom Jesus saw fit to take 
      We humbly to God's promises cling 
      Which to our lonely hearts do comfort bring."
      --The family.
      Funeral services were conducted by Bro. P. R. Kennel at the house and at the Salem Church by Bro. Benj. Schlegel and at the grave by Bro. F. C. Reeb. Interment in the adjoining cemetery.
