HALTEMAN. - Sophia Halteman, daughter of Bishop John and Mary Latshaw, 
deceased, and widow of the late Benjamin B. Halteman, was born in Chester 
Co., Pa., Mar. 2, 1840; died at the home of her son-in-law, Charles S. 
Sypherd, Spring City, Pa., Jan. 16, 1913; aged 72y. 10m 14d. Three sons and
2 daughters survive her. She had been in feeble health for some time and 
died of a complication of diseases. She was gifted in song. The alto voice 
we heard in our home and church we hope is now heard among the redeemed 
before the throne "which came out of great tribulation and have washed their 
robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb" (Rev. 7:13-17). 
Funeral services were conducted by Bro. Amos Kolb and the writer at the home 
and continued at Coventry Mennonite Church and cemetery where Bro. Jacob B. 
Hunsberger spoke from the text II Cor. 4:17,18.
J.C. Kolb.
(Burial E Coventry Mennonite)
