DE FOREST.—Eva A. De Forest, oldest child of George and Emma De Forest, died in Oakland, January 9, 1882, aged 5 years, 5 months, and 9 days. Her disease was whooping-cough and pneumonia, and her sufferings were great, but were borne patiently. She was always a kind, cheerful, and obedient child, and since her parents embraced the Sabbath, manifested a love for it remarkable in one so young. Brother and Sister De Forest have the sympathy of the church in their affliction, and are sustained by the hope of a happy meeting at the soon-coming resurrection. E. J. WAGGONER.
