— In spite of it being a cold, wintery day, the funeral services held for aged Jacob Dyck at the Zion church in Elbing last Thursday were attended by a large congregation of relatives. For many years the home of his son, Rev. H. J. Dyck just south of the Church, was a comfortable place for him to spend the declining years of his life. After the services in the church the body was laid to rest in the beautiful church cemetery three miles north of Elbing. Among those from Newton who attended the services were Sister Frieda, Rev. C. H. van der Smissen, Rev. and Mrs. J. E. Entz and Rev. J. J. Ratzlaff.
