| + | — G. H. Willms of the Herald Publ. Co. received a telegram last Friday morning stating that his father, Rev. H. H. Willms of Carseland, Alta., Canada, had died suddenly on the previous day. Mr. Willms took the Santa Fe immediately in order to get to Canada in time for the funeral, which was to take place on Monday afternoon. According to information received later, Rev. Willms had been in the town of Carseland on Thursday afternoon, where he addressed an assembly of young people. During the course of his address he had an attack of pleurisy which, however, disappeared later. Having arrived at his home, the attacks were again evident in the evening and death came unexpectedly. After coming from Russia soon after the communist revolution, the family established itself near Carseland, Alberta, where Rev. Willms later became pastor of a Mennonite church. He is survived by his wife and the following children: Gerh. H. of Newton, Henry, Abe, John, Peter, Jake, Kathryn and Agnes, all at home. He reached the age of 63 years. The Herald Publ. Co. and all workers extend heartfelt sympathy to the deeply bereaved family. |
