Badertscher. ­ Leah (Amstutz) Badertscher was born in Wayne Co., O., Oct. 23, 1864; died Nov. 30, 1933; aged 69 y. 1 m. 7 d. Several weeks ago she fell in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Albert Nussbaum in Kidron, O., fracturing a leg. Later she took sick with pleurisy and an infection of the throat, which caused her death. In her youth she was baptized by S. F. Sprunger of Berne, Ind., and received into the Salem Mennonite Church near Dalton, O., where she remained until in 1919 she became a member of the Gospel Tabernacle in Kidron, and remained a loyal member until the end. She was a devoted Christian mother. She was united in marriage to Christian Badertscher who preceded her thirteen years ago. One son (Harvey of Orrville) was born in them, and three daughters (Olive, wife of Albert Nussbaum, and twin girls, Pearl, wife of George Villard of Stanwood, and Cary, wife of George Sprunger of Ft. Wayne). Fifteen grandchildren and one brother (Peter C. Amstutz of Orrville), also survive, besides many cousins, nephews, and nieces. Funeral services were held at the Salem Church, Dec. 3, in charge of John Nussbaum of Berne, Ind., and A. W. Sommer and A. R. Kaiser, where a large concourse of people had gathered to pay their last tribute of respect.
