TRINIDAD, B. W. I.

PORT OF SPAIN.—The following is an extract from Sister L. M. Crowther's letter, of August 30, to friends in Dakota: “It is with a sad heart that I write to you this morning to tell you of my husband's death, which occurred Sunday, August 25. He was buried on Monday. Our doctor called it pernicious malarial fever; another doctor called it jungle fever. His death was very sudden; he was sick one week.”
“Sabbath morning, August 13, he talked in the meeting, but had to leave before it closed. He took his bed, and never got up again. I had two trained nurses and the doctor, and all was done that could be. The day before he died, he seemed so bright and cheerful we thought he would be up in a few days.”
“He and Elder Kneeland had gone to Tabago to look over the work there and get it started, but he stayed only a few weeks and came home sick. Elder Kneeland came home the day after my husband was buried, sick with the same fever. I have not heard from him this morning; yesterday he was a little better.”
“Pray for us, that we may be faithful, and meet him when Jesus comes, as he died rejoicing in the Lord.”
