Good - On the 6th of May 1894, in Allen Co, Ohio, very suddenly, Bro John D Good. He was born in Rockingham Co, Va, March 3rd 1863 and was aged 31 y, 2 m, and 3 d.

On the day of his death the deceased partook with us of the communion in the Salem Cong, apparently in usual health. Happily, his mother, his companion and all of his brothers and sisters were present and commemorated with him the dying love of Jesus. Little did we think his end was so near. How solemn it seems to us as we think of that communion.


He united with the Mennonite church at the age of about 18, and was married to Elizabeth Brenneman in his 24th year. While his sudden death casts a gloom over the neighborhood, the church and relatives, yet he leaves behind a good evidence that he was ready for the message, which summoned him to the eternal world; and we have good reason to believe he has gone to the "Beautiful, beautiful land, the home of the blest."

Buried on the 8th in the presence of a large concourse of friends and relatives, services by Andrew Shenk and C B Brenneman. Text, "Be ye therefore ready."
