Death of Sister Prescott

By Editor

We are deeply pained to announce the death of Sister Prescott, wife of Prof. W. W. Prescott, so well known to our people throughout the field, which occurred on the morning of June 10. Sister Prescott has been in failing health for several years, and has made a persistent fight for recovery; but all that the most skilful medical attention could do, has not availed to arrest the progress of her disease. Many earnest prayers have ascended in her behalf from brethren and sisters in various parts of the world, but it has seemed to be the will of the Great Physician that she should rest from her labors. She died with a bright hope in God, and with complete resignation to his will. She rests from a life of devotion to this cause, and of efficient labor in connection with the many responsibilities borne by her husband. To Brother Prescott, his son Lewis, and other mourning relatives in their bereavement, our sympathies are extended in this deep hour of affliction. Further particulars will be furnished later.
