DEATH OF FATHER ANSPACH,
Rev. J. G. Anspach passed quietly away
to his rest at twenty minutes of 7. o'clock,
on Friday morning, 8, at Mifflinburg,
His death was easy and painless. The
long and busy life was closed as gently
and quietly as can possibly be imagined.
He was aged 87 years, 4 months and 26
days. He was born in Potter twp, Cens
tre ccunty, Sept. 15th 1801, the oldest of
a family of eleven children,
The Lewisburg News says: Rev, Ans-
pach was a member of the first class
graduated from the Lutheran Theologi- |
cal Seminary at Gettysburg, and as early |
as 1830 was licensed to preach. For a
number of years he held regular services |
in the churches at Mifflinbuorg, Dreis- |
bach, Laurel Run, White Deer, Milton
and Lewisburg, but for 33 years previous |
to his retirement he served the Mifflin~ |
burg congregation continously, making
the longest record as pastor of one church
known to stand to the credit of any min-
ister in the State, while he did three
years better at Dreisbach’s where he
preached on alternate Sundays,
Since commencing his work in the
vineyard Rev. Anspach has baptized 3,-
407 infants, 547 adults, confirmed 2,081
| memberships, preached 1,680 funeral ser-
mons, and performed 982 marriage cere-
monies. He preached his last sermon at
{ Rubl’s Church, west of Mifflinburg, May
| 4th, 1884, and since then has lived in res
| tirement,

{| Tuere are now at least five strong char- |
| ges in Union county the outgrowth of |
his early sowing. His active ministry |
covers a period of 53 years. During this |
time he confirmed 2081 persons; adminis
to 3407 mfants and 547 |

6635 that he received into the i
church,
He led to the grave 1686 funerals; mars |
