RICHARDSON.—Eliza Richardson was born in Scotland Feb. 17, 1829. She came to Canada when she was fourteen years of age, and since 1906 has lived with her daughter at Newberg, Oregon. She accepted the truth for this time in 1874. Loyalty to the message characterized her life. She took part with the family in evening worship just a short time before she breathed her last, Jan. 23, 1913. The church was filled to more than its seating capacity by friends who listened attentively to a summary of the third angel’s message. B. L. HOWE.

WILKINSON.—John N. Wilkinson fell asleep in Jesus at his home, West Townsend, Mass., March 15, 1913, aged 79 years, 6 months, and 4 days. Brother Wilkinson was an active member of the Fitchburg church. He was devoted to the church and Sabbath-school work. The Sabbath before he died he faithfully performed his religious duties, when he should have remained at home caring for himself. There remain to mourn their loss his faithful wife, two sons, two daughters, thirteen grandchildren, and twenty-five great-grandchildren. The funeral service was conducted by the writer at the Baptist church, assisted by Pastor S. T. Ringrose of that church. CHAS. F. ULRICH.
