Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.

DIED, in Battle Creek, April 24, 1869, Sr. Harriet Jones, wife of Bro. L. M. Jones, aged 51 years. She had been gradually running down for three years, and the last sixteen weeks her sufferings were very great, but were endured with great patience.

She embraced the present truth 12 years ago, and her life was one of faithfulness in the cause she loved.

A husband and two children mourn the loss of an affectionate companion and mother. Her last words to her husband were, “Come through, and bring the children with you.”

A discourse was given by the writer to a large and sympathizing audience, from Rev. xiv, 13.

M. E. CORNELL.

DIED, in Portland, Mich., April 26, Sr. Mary Perry, aged 64 years, 3 months, and 12 days. She had been a follower of her Saviour forty-six years. She shared in the disappointment of 1844, and embraced the third message in the fall of 1853. Funeral discourse by the writer, from Heb. ix, 27.

P. STRONG.
