OBITUARY
 
Jonas Hostetler was born near Accident, Md., on May 19, 1859 and departed this 
life on Feb. 24, 1939, at the goodly age of 80 years, 9 months and 5 days.  On 
Nov. 14, 1880 he was married to Rebecca Beeghly who passed away about thirteen 
years ago.  To this union were born five sons and four daughters, one son and 
one daughter having preceded him in death.
 
In 1903 the family moved from Maryland to a homestead near Williston, N. D., 
in 1910 they moved to their present home in Fruitland.
 
Those who are left to mourn his passing are four sons, John, Galen and Floyd 
of Fruitland and Harvey of Detroit, Mich.; three daughters, Mrs. Ann Beehler, 
Ada and Ellen of Fruitland; six grandchildren; two brothers, Joseph of Yakima, 
Wa., and William of Raisin City, Cal.; three sisters, Mrs. Mary Stoerlein and 
Mrs. Annie Kahl of Fresno, Cal., and Mrs. Sarah Fry of San Francisco, Cal., 
besides a host of other relatives and friends.
 
Early in life he united with the Brethren church and has lived a consistent 
Christian life ever since, serving the church and his fellow men in every 
capacity that presented itself.
 
The funeral was held at the Brethren church on Sunday at 2:30.  Rev. Harry 
Thomas and Rev. Earl Fisher had charge of the services.  Burial was in 
Riverside cemetery at Payette.
 
Mr. Hostetler will be greatly missed in his church, his home, and among his 
friends and neighbors.
