Obituary

Henry L. Remling was born Nov. 24th, 1842 in Walt Weiss, Germany, came to Scotland County in 1855, was married to Miss Mary Schmitter on Sept. 11, 1863. Eight children survive him. He continued to live on his farm in Harrison Township till July 28, 1894, when he died from an injury received from a blow on the stomach, from the hoof of a jennet. He lived but twenty-four hours after he was hurt. He was attended by Drs. McReynolds and Peckstein, of Wyaconda. His suffering was excruciating till death occurred.

He was a man beloved by all who knew him. He was a leader in the German Methodist church at Etna, superintendent of the Sunday school, and a local preacher. His loss will be wonderfully felt by his bereaved wife and children; by the church and Sunday school and by the entire community. He was honest, industrious, prosperous, accommodating, the embodiment of all the noble traits of human character. Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Zimmerman, assisted by the Rev. Hartel. These services were impressive and appropriate throughout.

The remains were laid to rest in Etna cemetery attended by an immense number of sorrowing friends.
Called from earthly toils
To celestial joys.
The sad death of the departed reminds us of the frailty of human life. How unexpectedly and yet how surely it comes, comes not alone to the aged and feeble, but to the vigorous and the strong; yea comes to all. May god in his mercy help us to be prepared to meet that call when it shall come to us. W.L. Campbell, Etna, Mo.
