LATSHAW.-Feb. 11th (1878), in East Coventry, Chester Co., Pa., Bishop JOHN 
LATSHAW, aged 73 years, 10 months and 7 days. He was in the ministry about
44 years, and bishop some 36 years. He was much beloved and respected by 
his neighbors and by all the brotherhood, and by all his fellow-ministers. 
He was firmly established and grounded upon the rock and corner-stone Christ 
Jesus. His conversation was always proper and seasoned with love. He was a 
good counselor in the conference of the ministers, and testified earnestly 
against the innovations of the times. May God bless his labors. Services 
were held at the house by Pre. Conner and John Hunsberger, and at the 
meeting-house by Josiah Clemmer and Andrew Mack from Rev. 13:14.



Buried E Coventry Mennonite Cemetery - there is tombstone image also of him.
