Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.
Died, in Fairfield, Vt., May 17, 1870, of dropsy, Sr. Cynthia P. Herrick, wife of Newton Herrick, aged 44 years. In early life, Sr. H. embraced religion. Several years since, she commenced the observance of the Bible Sabbath; subsequently to which time she united with the Seventh-day Adventist church at Enosburgh, where she remained a worthy member till her death.
She bade adieu to friends, and fell asleep with the buoyant hope of the immediate coming of Jesus, and of a resurrection to immortality and eternal life in that glorious day.
A large circle of mourners and sympathizing friends followed her to her grave, on the 19th, in Fairfield. We pray that the bereft companion and daughter may be prepared for life when the Lifegiver comes.
Sermon on the occasion from the words, “If a man die, shall he live again?” A. S. Hutchins.
