    Lehman - On the 22nd of December, 1893, at her home in Green Village, Franklin co., of the grippe of which she suffered about ten days, Leah, wife of Joseph Lehman, Aged 78 yrs., 2 mos., 25 days. She was a faithful member in the Brethren in Christ (River Brethren) denomination and mother of Bro.J.S. Lehman, business manager of the Mennonite Publishing House. A few days before her last sickness came she literally "put her house in order," and made arrangements as if she were going away on a visit, so that her friends were surprised, not knowing that she had any intention of going away. Soon after she took sick she said, "This may be a Christmas funeral," and so it proved to be. During her sickness she earnestly admonished all who came to see her to make "their calling and election sure." As the time of her departure drew near she became overwhelmed with the glory of the blest and in rapture she exclaimed, "O happy, happy place!" She was fully resigned to God's will and said, "The time of health and strength is the time to prepare for death. Then, when the message comes to go, it will be a welcome one. "Thirty minutes before her death she carefully smoothed down her hair under her prayer head covering which she adjusted and tied neatly. She entreated those around her not to mourn, for she said all was well with her. She was conscious to the last, and when she was gone we felt that a dear mother in Israel had left us, yet her kind and timely words of advice and her noble example will continue to live and speak while her form moulders in the grave. Her matrimonial life of 58 years was a happy one. Her husband, 4 children and many children of the third and fourth generation survice her. Buried on the 25. Funeral services by Martin Oberholtzer assised by others.
