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

DIED, at Pilot Grove, Iowa, Sabbath morning, Nov. 20, 1869, of typhoid fever, our beloved brother, Eli H. Adams, in the 30th year of his age. Bro. A. had been a believer in that awful delusion, Spiritualism, until about seven years ago, when he was arrested by present truth, soundly converted to God, as his life ever after fully testified. He had the confidence of all that knew him. He exemplified the religion of Jesus in his life, and died leaving us the best of evidence that he rests in hope.

He leaves a dear wife and four children, and many relatives, to mourn his loss, but they need not mourn as those that have no hope. On the occasion of the funeral, some Scripture was read on the subject of the resurrection, and a few remarks were made by the writer, to a very large audience assembled in the meeting-house at Pilot Grove.
