RUFUS BAKER

By Rufus Baker

DIED, June 13, 1868, at Marquette, Wis., of congestion of the lungs, Alice Augusta, daughter of Joseph and Calista Calkins, aged 6 years 7 months and 25 days.

After a short illness of less than 24 hours, this sweet child was suddenly removed. She was uncommonly lovely and affectionate in her disposition, and loved to pray and talk of heavenly things. Her weeping parents feel that they sorrow not even as others who have no hope.

Remarks by the writer from Jer. xxxi, 15–17.
