— The largest funeral service held at the first Mennonite church for some time was taht of Miss Ruth Ents [sic Entz], daughter of Rev. J. E. Entz, which was held on Monday afternoon. As reported in last week's Review, Miss Entz passed away suddenly on March 24 at the Montrose Girls School, Montrose, Pa. The body was immediately sent to Newton, and was accompanied by Miss Elizabeth Schultz, one of the instructors of the Montrose school. At the funeral service at the country home of Rev. Entz, Rev. B. Regier spoke words of comfort, while at the church Rev. A. Warkentin and Rev. H. J. Dyck of Elbing officiated. An especially impressive part of the service was the rendition of special music by the young people's choir of the church, of which Miss Entz had been a member. The Review extends heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved father. A detailed obituary appears elsewhere in thes issue.
