DIED, in Fairview, Jones Co., Iowa, Feb. 1, 1866, Benjamin Foos, aged 52 years.

Bro. Foos embraced the Sabbath under the labors of Bro. Cornell six years ago this spring. During that time he has been a firm believer in the Advent doctrine. We deeply feel his loss. He came to his death while in the act of drawing logs to the saw-mill. His sled upset and caught him between the log he was on and one on the ground, bruising him so that he lived but four hours. He leaves four children to mourn his loss. N. B. MORTON.

Died, in Deerfield, Steele Co., Minn., of typhoid fever, Esther P. Warren, wife of Josiah H. Warren, aged 43 years.

Sister Warren embraced the third angel's message about eight years ago. Since that time she has remained firm and steadfast in the present truth, and as she sweetly fell asleep it was with a firm hope that she should soon come forth and be clothed in immortality and eternal life. W. M. ALLEN.

Died, in Matherton, Mich., Jan. 7, 1866, sister Eliza Kellogg, aged 30 years.

Sister Kellogg leaves a husband and family to mourn her loss; but they have hope that she will come again from the land of the enemy. P. STRONG.

Died, in Vernon, Van Buren Co., Iowa, Aug. 29, 1865, of chronic dysentery, sister Huldah, wife of Bro. Nahum Sargent, aged 74 years.

Sister Sargent embraced the third angel's message about five years ago, and rejoiced that she ever was called to see the beauties of God's righteous law. She continued until her death to honor God by calling his holy Sabbath her delight. Though this mother in Israel has gone down to the grave, her family and the church have the comforting hope that she sleeps in Jesus. F. MORROW.
