The death of Christina C.
Lewenstein, widow of the late Frederick C. Youse, of Middleton, occurred
recently from consumption, after a long illness.
Deceased was born in Middleton,
June 4th, 1867, and on Nov. 1st, 1888 married Mr. F. C. Youse, who died
about two years ago, also from consumption.
Mrs. Youse is survived by three
children, Lydia, Clara and Thomas, her aged decrepit father, Christoff
Lewenstein, three brothers, John of Middleton, Jacob of Wyecombe and
George of Toledo, Ohio, two sisters, Mrs. John Wa[l]ters, of Middleton and
Mrs. W. Staib, of Delhi.
The funeral took place in
Rhineland, the Rev. O. Weinbach, Lutheran pastor, conducting the service.
The very large number who attended the funeral at the house, as well as in
the church, testified eloquently of the sorrow and empathy which is being
felt for the bereaved family.
Some beautiful sprays, wreathes
and designs of flowers were sent by friends from Buffalo and other places.
Amongst these floral offerings was a fine pillow of flowers from the
Ladies' Aid of St. Peter's Lutheran Church of Rhineland, of which deceased
had been a member.
The pallbearers were Messrs. John
Ebert, Geo. Albrecht, Thomas Unver[.]gt, Silas Boughner, Chas. Nunn and
Wm. Arthur Boughner.
