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

DIED, Oct. 2, 1868, in the town of Wadams, Stephenson Co., Ill., T. L. Brown, eldest son of Thomas and Susannah Brown, aged sixteen years, three months, and nine days. Bro. and Sr. Brown, although prostrate themselves with disease, are consoled with the bright and cheering hope of soon meeting their son where sickness and death never come. Remarks were made upon the occasion from John xi, 25. C. H. ROGERS.

DIED, at the residence of the writer in Adams Center, N. Y., Nov. 11, 1868, Chloe, daughter of A. Damon, aged 9 years. We took little Chloe to our home in obedience to Gal. vi, 2. We laid her upon our couch; we watched her tenderly, day and night, administered to all her wants; but the enemy had pierced her life-power with one of his deadly arrows, and she fell asleep. Text: “Is it well with the child? It is well.” C. O. TAYLOR.

DIED, at his residence in Adams Center, N. Y., Nov. 10, 1868, Bro. Henry Bunce, aged 59 years and 7 months. Bro. B. commenced his religious life in 1837 and there commenced observing the Bible Sabbath. He embraced the third message and its kindred doctrines when the tent was here in 1861. In his death a large circle of friends and kindred are called to mourn, a wife has lost a kind companion, four children a tender and loving father, and the church a worthy member. On the burial occasion we offered words of comfort from 1 Thess. iv, 18. C. O. TAYLOR.
