The funeral services of Miss Lillian Yoder, of Berne, who accidently met death at about 7:30 o'clock on Monday forenoon when her father's car, in which she was riding, struck an interurban work-train about five miles east of Logansport, will be held east of Logansport [sic], was held Thursday afternoon at the local Mennonite church. Although Miss Yoder, aged 19, was a member of the Defenseless Mennonite church west of Berne, her last rites were held at the local church through the many requests of her friends in this community, who would have been unable to attend the funeral out of town to pay tribute to her, and because the Defenseless church would have been too small to hold the friends who wished to attend.
