Death of Elder J. B. Beckner

It is with sadness that we announce the death of one of our veteran workers and missionaries, Elder J. B. Beckner, who died at the home of his son, Brother Geo. T. Beckner, in Massachusetts. Elder Beckner devoted his earlier ministry to the work in the Southwest, and later spent many years in the West Indies. For several years he has been retired from active service, on account of failing health. Our sympathy is with his bereaved companion and the family. Of his children, three are in other lands,—in Porto Rico, South Africa, and Burma.
