submitted by Rosebud - Jan 10, 1896 - Der Carroll Demokrat (German-language newspaper, Carroll, Iowa) Friday, 10 January 1896 - C.F. Herrmann - On last Saturday the worthy Pastor of the Lutheran Community in Arcadia was laid to his final rest. A large number of mourners assembled, and many admirers of the deceased even traveled from Carroll to Arcadia to pay their last respects to the deceased Pastor. Three brother pastors were present, namely: Reverend Pastor Studd from Lucerne, Iowa; Amstein of Charter Oak, Iowa; and Lothringen of Denison, Iowa. The Reverend Pastor Studd, who many years ago introduced his colleague to the ministry, delivered the sermon, which made a deep impression on the listeners.
The deceased was born on 27 June 1843 in Sachsen Weimar, came to America in 1869, and pursued his studies in St. Louis, Missouri. As a pastor, he worked initially in Benton County, Iowa, and in 1884 came to Arcadia in Carroll County, where he worked steadily since then. Just as he was eager in his service, never shying from the hardship of the weather to visit his district missions and preach the word of God, though in recent times he was somewhat feeble and in failing health, so also was he respectful to everyone. He was a man of God who accumulated no wealth to be consumed by rust or moths, but all his effort went to earn treasure for Heaven, and so he died poor in worldly goods.
At his grave mourn his grieving wife, 4 daughters, and a son-in-law, the Reverend Pastor Theis.
One son preceded him into eternity. A mother of advanced age who still lives in Germany will hardly survive the painful death of her son.
