"Es gilt dem Hoechsten allesgleich
Den Reichen arm und kleinzumachen,

Father Schultz died on the 9th of May, 1789, aged 71
years, 1 month, 13 days; the immediate cause of his
death was apoplexy, although he had been indisposed
some time previous to the attack.
His last words, barely audible to the family, were:
"A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a
little while and ye shall see me, because I go to the
Father."
The Rev. Chistopher Hoffman, of Skippack, preached
the funeral sermon, taking for his text the words of
St. Paul, 2 Timothy 4: 7-8: I have fought a good
fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the
faith, etc.
This sermon, fully written out and remaining in the
family, has lost nothing of interest on account of its
great age.
