"MRS. BERTHA ENFIELD - Mrs. Bertha Enfield, daughter of Carl and Wilimenia Zick, was born in Christ Belard, Germany, where she grew to womanhood, and departed this life February 2, 1937, at the age of 75 years, 10 months and 24 days. She came to America in 1880. Was united in marriage to Conrad Enfield, of Iowa City, in 1884. Mother was a member of the Lutheran church until 1888, when she with her husband joined the Brethren church. She was baptized by Henry Flora in Johnson county, Iowa. To this union seven children were born: Phillip, who preceded her in death one year ago; Mrs. Harry DeVilbiss, of Maxwell; Mrs. Charles Fackler, of Farrar; Charles, Daniel and Harmon, all at home. One child died in infancy. Her husband preceded her in death 10 years ago. There are one granddaughter, Glorine, and five grandsons, Dwight, Earl, Willis, Emmert and Paul, and a host of relatives and friends. She was the last of her family of five brothers and sisters. After her marriage she moved with her husband on a farm near Iowa City where they resided for thirteen years. In 1897 they moved to her home, where she died. There is no one just like mother and she'll be missed since she has gone. A Loving Tribute to Mother. Must we say good bye dear mother? How it rends out hearts with pain. Must this tenderest tie be broken, here to never meet again. Must you leave us, precious mother? Who, so patient, loving, true, has been thoughtful, watchful o'er us, Lo! These many years passed through. You have taught us of the Saviour. Taught us of the Holy way. Even in our earliest childhood taught us how to kneel and pray. Yes, we'll say good bye, dear mother, yes, to Father's loving will, for we know that your sweet memory lingers with us ever still. And we know you're in His keeping in that land of bliss and light. There no sorrow, pain nor weeping, where there never comes a night. May we trust your loving Saviour you have taught us so to love, that we all may meet together in that happy home above. There no farewell word is spoken, there all tears are wiped away, there to be ties e'er broken., there to live through endless day. Services were conducted Friday at the Brethren church, south of Maxwell, by Rev. S. L. Shenton, of Des Moines, assisted by Rev. Fay, of Farrar. Scripture reading was followed by prayer. Music was furnished by a male quartet from Maxwell, and were Rev. T. J. Pettit, C. B. French, Harry Fackler and Martin Troup, who sang "In the City Four Square," "No Disappointment in Heaven" and "We're Going Down the Valley." Mrs. H. C. Larsen presided at the piano. The sermon used was scripture references entitled "Comfort from God's Word," and was as follows: "Comfort From God's Word. Fear thou not; for I an with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa. 41:10. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of mercies, and the God of all comfort, who comforteth us in all our tribulation. II Cor. 1:3-4. As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you. Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. The Lord redeemeth the soul of His servants and none of them that trust in Him shall He desolate. Psa. 34:19, 22. The Lord is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works. Psa. 15:5-9. He will find the desires of them that fear Him; He will also hear their cry, and will save them. For He said, surely they are my people. Psa. 145:19. A worthy woman, who can find? For her price is far above rubies. Her children rise up and call her blessed. Many daughters have done worthily, but thou excellest them all. Grace is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman that feareth Jehovah, she shall be praised. Prov. 31:10, 28-30. The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord. Why art thou cast down O my soul, and why art thou disquited within me? Hope thou in God for I shall yet praise him who is God for I shall yet praise him who is the help of my countenance and my God. Psa. 42:5. We know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heaven. II Cor. 5:1. I would not have you ignorant brethren concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him. I Thes. 4:13. Let not your heart be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions. If it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself that where I am there ye may be also. John 14:1." Interment took place in the Brethren cemetery." **Editorial, spelling, grammar and punctuation are as the original newspaper article.
