THE SEBEWA RECOLLECTOR, Bulletin of the Sebewa Center Association, Volume 30, August 1994, Number 1:
OBITUARY FROM IONIA SENTINEL JUNE 11, 1894:
SLOWINSKI, THEOPHILUS:  The funeral of Theophilus Slowinski, who died on 
Sunday, was held from the Church of SS. Peter & Paul this morning at 10 
o’clcock, the large audience room of the church being filled to its utmost 
capacity.  The Rev. Fierle conducted the services and preached an eloquent 
sermon.  The German Aid Society, of which the deceased was a member, attended 
in a body to the number of more than 40, and marched to the cemetery with the 
remains.  There were nearly 50 teams in the procession also.
(Editor’s Note:  Great-great-uncle Teofil was a merchant tailor in Ionia, an 
officer in the Arbiter Bund (German Workers Aid Society), 47 years of age, and 
a hail-fellow-well-met.  There were indeed 50 teams behind the hearse on the 
road to Mt. Olivet!)
