        JOHN - Tuesday, February 23rd, Mrs. Sarah John, 30, Harriet-street, Trecynon, Aberdare - widow of the late Mr David John, former Ebenezer singer. Her health had troubled her for a long time. About two years ago she was struck by sudden paralysis[1]. After that, her health was frail until the end. But she bore this patiently and quietly. She was 69 years old. She was buried on the following Saturday. A service was held in the Ebenezer chapel, where she had been a member of many years. She felt a deep interest in the history and cause of the church. The service was led by Rev J. Grawys Jones. In the cemetery, Rev. W. I. Morris, Pontypridd - an old friend - spoke to the crowd. Rev E. C. Davies, Ynyshir, prayed; and a hymn was sung by Rev W. S. Davies, Llwydcoed. It was a very respectful and well-attended funeral. May the protection of Heaven be upon the children - Mr Tom John, Llwynpia; Mr John John, Ynyshir; Mrs Preece, Porth; and Miss Mary John.
