Death Of Edward Raebel.

The announcement of the death Of
Edward Rachel Tuesday morning was J,
quite shock to the community,
though hardly unexpected. Mr.. Rachel
who is well advanced in years was
called upon to part with his life COM
panion only ten days ago. At that
time he expressed desire to follow her
to the other world in short time,
which he did. Thus the children are
robbed of their earthly parents in the
twinkling of an eye.
The writer had learned to know the,
deceased and spent many happy hours
in his company. He enjoyed talking
with young people and we never missed
an opportunity of brightning the aged
gentleman's life when we knew he en-
joyed social conversation. He will
be missed by many people, and our only
hope is to so live that we may all meet
him in the FOUNDER world.
Edward Carl Conrad Rachel was born
in Ruegen, Germany, May IS, 1884 and
fell peacefully asleep at his late home
at Audubon, Iowa, February IL, 1918,
aged 70 years, months and 90 days.
May 9th, 1858 he was united in marriage
with Wilhelmine Sophia Caroline Harm
to which union were born six children,
three of whom with the mother and
wife preceded him to the Great Beyond.
Tbraa oury;yo as follox,s. Do,, w N
Rachel of Canton, Ohio, Mrs. r. J.
Olson of Roswell, South Dakota and
Robert w. Raebel of Audubon, all of
whom with host of friends and rela-
tives mourn the loss of devoted chris
tan, kind father. peaceful and
honored citizen. He rests from his !.
labors and his works do follow him.
In 1888 he with his family came to
America and lived on farm near Ram
som, Ill.,, at which place they united
with the German M. E. church. Re-
moving from the vicinity of the German
NJ. E. church, he transferred his meme
bership to the German Evangelical
church in the community to which he
moved later on and remained member
of the same until death. Later the
family moved to Dwight, H., and in
1894 the family came to Audubon
county, and the last eight years they,
lived in the town of Audubon.
Father Raebel loved the cause of
Christ above everything else. He was
one of the best neighbors, always being
held in the highest esteem by all who
knew him. Just ten days ago he was
bereft of his companion, the shock in
connection with grief was too much
for the worn and wearied body and on
last Tuesday morning he fell peacefully
asleep in that slumber from which none
ever wake to weep
The pastor, Rev. Freedline, was per
sonally acquainted with the deceased.
He was happy Christian. On the day
of the funeral of Mrs Raebel he re-
marked ut will not be long until too
will be where mother is and God be
praised for this blessed hope" How
soon these hopes are realized. He al.
ways had a warm affection for the
Methodist Episcopal church, for that
church was the mother church in which
he was converted.
Funeral services will be held from
the M. E. church this afternoon at
loo p. m, conducted by Rev. Freedline.
A mixed quartet sang several beautiful
selections. Rev. Freedline had for his
text: "And they shall see his face.s'
