HERALD OF TRUTH - Volume IV, Number 5 - May 1867 - Page 78: On the 10th of April, in Allen Co., Ohio., after a protracted illness, of gravel and dropsy, JOHN BRENNEMAN Sen., aged one day less than 72 years. He was buried, on the 12th, at the Mennonite buring-grounds, (sic) on which occasion Bro. C. Culp delivered an impressive discourse from Is. 57:2, in German, and from the latter part of the 10th verse of the 23rd chapt. of Numbers in English. Bro. Benneman (sic) was born in Rockingham Co., Virginia, whence he came to Fairfield County, Ohio, when a young man. In 1854 he removed with his family from Fairfield to Allen Co. He bore his bodily afflictions with great patience and resignation, and repeatedly remarked that he was not afraid to die, and that he felt prepared and willing to depart. After he was confined to his room, he frequently requested exhortations and prayer. It seemed to be his great delight to speak of heavenly and spiritual things. He told me that it appeared to him, that Christianity is of much greater importance than many persons imaginethat he was afraid, there are a great many persons who know not what Christianity is. Although his departure seems to be a great loss to his friends, we have reason to believe that their loss is his eternal gain. He leaves a wife and eleven children. J. M. Brenneman.
