Died, last Thursday morning at 3 o'clock a.m. very suddenly of heart disease, Mrs. G. Bennink.
The deceased is one of the old couples living on the Alton Road. She is an old Settler and well known all over the county and very highly respected. The deceased leaves a large number of relatives and friends to mourn her loss. Trusting in the wisdom of Him who doeth all things well and who has taken His servant to the Rest prepared for such, they can be consoled in his heavy loss. The relatives and friends have our heart felt sympathy in their bereavenment.

The last week has died of here, Mr. Geurt Bennink, one of the first settlers in the age of 78 years. He was the first bakery in the settlement. He lived several years between here and Alton. After the death of his wife he moved in with Mr. Willem Van Roekel, with whom he remained until the day of his death. He had only one child, a daughter, who later became the wife of Mrs. William Vogelaar, but like that of her father some years ago went for eternity. Monday was the funeral place and Rev. Lepeltak led the worship.
