At the age of fourteen he was converted and baptized and became a lifelong member of the Mennonite Church. He was married to Ida E. Miller at Springs, Pa., July 19, 1896. To this union were born three children: Ralph, Scottdale, Pa.; Paul, Goshen, Ind.; and Ruth, Wilkinsburg, Pa. On May 4, 1902, his companion passed way. On April 1, 1906, he married Sallie L. Miller at the Springs, Pa., and to this union two children were born: Luke, Los Angeles, Calif.; Earl, Bakersfield, Calif. His second companion passed away at Newton, Kans., Nov. 29, 1918. His third marriage was to Anna M. Kreider on March 27, 1929, and to this union were born two children: Daniel H., Jr., and Norma Elizabeth, both at home. He is survived by his widow, 7 children, one grandchild, 3 brothers (Fred and John, Springs, Pa.; and C. Edward, Columbiana, Ohio), and many other relatives and friends. At the age of eighteen he began teaching school, and including his service as administrator at Hesston Academy and College he followed the teaching profession for over forty years. In November, 1887, he was ordained to the ministry at Springs, Pa., and on Feb. 9, 1912, was ordained a bishop at Hesston, Kans. Early in his ministry he was active throughout the Mennonnite Church in evangelistic and Bible conference work, and served in leading capacities on many church committees and on church boards, including publication, educational, and mission boards. He was active in the early development of these boards and of the General Conference of the Mennonite Church. He served on the Relief Committee and on the Mennonite Colonization Board, and was active in the organization and early work of the Mennonite Central Committee. In January, 1904, he resigned as principal of the Grantsville, Md., school to accept a call to become editor of the Herald of Truth, the church paper then published at Elkhart, Ind. In March, 1906, he went to Scottdale, Pa., to serve as office editor of the Gospel Witness and later of the Gospel Herald, when that paper started as a merger to the Gospel Witness and Herald of Truth to become the Mennonite church paper. In the spring of 1909 he was appointed to take charge of the new church school being established a Hesston, Kans. He served as principal of Hesston Academy and Bible School and as president of Hesston College and Bible School until his resignation in 1930. After his resignation he lived in North Dakota, California, and Kansas, and finally settled at Albany, Oreg., because of the mild climate, where he remained until the summons came to occupy his eternal home. In his very active service in the Mennonite Church he was closely associated with such men as Daniel Kauffman, D. J. Johns, J. S. Shoemaker, S. F. Coffman, D. D. Miller, Aaron Loucks, S. E. Allgyer, and others who were instrumental in guiding the church into fields of activity and in molding the present character of the church in the United States and Canada. He was widely known and loved in all parts of the church for his life of faith and service. Funeral services were held at the Albany, Oreg., Church, Jan. 25, conducted by David D. Miller, M. E. Brenneman, Fred Gingerich, and George M. Kauffman, and at the Hesston College Chapel, Hesston, Kans., Jan. 30, conducted by Milo Kauffman, J. G. Hartzler, and Paul Erb.
