Aged Grandfather Died at Birthplace

Shipshewana, Ind. — Funeral services for Jacob J. Lambright, 72, lifelong resident of the Topeka community, were held at the Townline Conservative church south of here on Oct. 14, Rev. Sam Eash and Rev. John Yoder in charge. The services were widely attended.

The aged father and grandfather passed away Sunday, Oct. 12, at the farm home one mile west of Emma — the same farm where he was born and spent his entire life.

He is survived by his wife, the former Ethel West, 10 children, 60 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
