    Heiser. ? Joseph S. Heiser of Tremont, Ill., was born Jan. 4, 1854; died Aug. 8 1932, after being bed-fast for five weeks; aged 78 y. 7 m. 4 d. Through all his suffering he was very patient never complaining, having a desire to depart. He united with the Amish Church in his youth, always interested and active in the work of the Lord, never missing a church service when able to attend, ever ready to give an answer for the hope that was within him. On Jan. 28, 1877, he was united in marriage to Fannie, daughter of Pre. Daniel and Kate Roth. Five children blessed this union. One daughter (Bena), 2 grandchildren, 1 great-grandchild, 3 sisters, and 1 brother preceded him in death. He leaves his bereaved companion and the following children: Ella M. Litwiller of Tremont, Albert E. Heiser of Pekin, Louisa Heiser at home, Edward R. Heiser of Pekin, 8 grandchildren, 1 great-grandchild, 1 brother (Christian Heiser of Minier, Ill.) 2 sisters (Mrs. Jacob Nafziger and Mary Heiser of Tremont), and many relatives and friends mourn his departure.

    By the grace of God we'll meet you
    Over on the peaceful shore."
