OSBORNE.—Died at his home in Woodland, Cal., April 2, 1904, our beloved brother, Prof. N. B. Osborne, aged 52 years, 2 months, and 27 days. He accepted present truth as a result of the labors of Elders L. R. Lawrence and T. J. Butler, at Clinton, Kan., in 1872. After teaching a few years in Kansas, and breaking down in health, he came to California, hoping to recover his former physical vigor. He established a commercial school at Woodland, which he conducted as proprietor and principal for about eight years. On account of failing health he was obliged to give up teaching for a time. He afterward was connected with Healdsburg College, but for the past two or three years was not able to engage in his chosen work of teaching. For many years he was a faithful elder of the Woodland church. He leaves a wife, three sons, two daughters, three brothers, and six grandchildren to mourn their loss. He died with a firm hope in God. The immediate cause of his death was catarrhal consumption of the bronchial tubes and air cells of the lungs. The funeral discourse was preached by Elder G. W. Rine, of Healdsburg, who brought forth many comforting scriptures. J. S. OSBORNE.
