FRANKLIN SQUIRE.

DIED, in Rouse's Point, N. Y., Oct. 24, 1865, sister Margaret Bendon, aged 81 years.

Much good could be said of Sr. B. While she had not the knowledge of reading, she could see that the seventh day was the Sabbath, and commenced keeping it in 1858. She was among the poor of this world, yet rich in faith toward God, and was the first in the vicinity to commence giving weekly donations. She loved the truth, and had great confidence in God, that he would supply all her earthly wants. I expect she will tread the immortal shores. Sermon by D. T. Taylor, subject, Immortality.
