SCHRACK - On the 21st of March 1896 at the residence of Maria Koeing in Livingstone Co., Ill., Jacobine Schrack of lung trouble and the infirmities of old age at the advanced age of 81 years, 6 months and 12 days. Our deceased sister leaves no direct descendent. Her husband John Schrack died about 24 years ago. Her last words were "The Lord's will be done," after which she calmly fell asleep, to awake as we believe in the land of the immortal. She was a faithful member of the old Amish Mennonite church. Her remains were laid to rest on the 23d in the Waldo Twp. cemetery. Funeral services at the house by Daniel Orendorff and at the meeting house by Stephen Stähly from Psalms 90 assisted by the writer from Isa. 38:1-3. A very large concourse of people followed her remains to their last resting place. Peace to her ashes. JOHN P. SCHMITT
