STEINER - On Thursday,Dec. 16, the death angel claimed the spirit of Daniel Steiner, a pioneer resident of Orrville, O. He was in failing health for several years, but was not confined to bed until two weeks prior to his death. Although suffering intense pain at times, he bore it patiently to the last. His age was 87 y. 14 d. He was born in Belfort, Alsace,France, Dec.2, 1822, from which he came to America with his parents when five years old. At an early age he joined the Swiss Mennonite Church, of which he was ever a faithful, true and God-fearing member. His advantages for an education were limited, as his school days did not exceed three months; but by grasping every opportunity to learn he was finally able to understand and read ordinary English. He was married to Magdalena Basinger, June 12, 1853, and lived peacefully with her for 56 years. One son and one daughter have preceded him to the spirit world. He is survived by his wife,5 sons, 3daughters, 29 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild. Funeral services were conducted Dec. 29, by Cleophas Amstutz and David Yoder at the Crown Hill Church
