Jacob Guengerich, aged 36 years, 4 months and 21 days. He was sick one week, and leaves a wife and three sons, and also an aged invalid mother-in-law to mourn their loss. Two of the sons lay sick of lung fever at the time of his death, but have since recovered. He was a grandson of Dr. Andrew Zehr of Canada. He came to Johnson Co., in his youth; some years later he married Maria Schlabach and for the sake of distinction was therefore called Schlabach Jacob Guengerich. He was faithful to his duties as father, husband and neighbor, and toward the church and the Sunday school, and his death was a sore loss to all, yet the word came, "The Master is here and calleth for thee." His remains were buried on the 15th of March, followed by many friends and relatives. Funeral services by C.J. Miller and Peter Kinsinger. Text, Mark 13:32-37.
