“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, from henceforth.” Rev. 14:13.
DIED of diphtheria, at Edenville, Midland Co., Mich., Feb. 1, at the age of 3 years, 10 months, and 4 days, Clark W., son of Wm. and Josephine Bowman. Funeral discourse delivered by the writer on Sunday, Feb. 2. W. H. LITTLEJOHN.
DIED, at Richland, Dakota Territory, Jessie May, youngest child of Edwin L. and Mary E. Pettis. Funeral discourse by the writer from 1 Cor. 15:54. M. M. OLSEN.
DIED at our home, near Oswego, N. Y., Dec. 28, 1878, my dear father, Abel Tuttle, in the fifty-ninth year of his age. Father was for more than thirty years a believer in the Advent doctrine, and was among the best in this State to commence the observance of the Sabbath. He dwelt much on the coming of the Saviour, and the resurrection. We believe he is of the blessed dead mentioned in Rev. 14:13. SUSAN E. T. KINGSBURY.
DIED of a cancerous affection, at Mechanicsville, Vt., Jan. 22, 1879, Sister Caroline Hemenway, in the sixty-ninth year of her age. Sister H. was a member of the Methodist church until the sound of the present truth reached her ears and heart, when she readily turned her feet into the way of the testimonies of the Lord. She united with the little church of Sabbath-keepers in Andover of which for nearly eleven years she was a valuable member. In her death her husband and children have lost a faithful wife and mother, and the church a worthy member; but we sorrow not as those without hope. M. B. PIERCE.
THE funeral services of sister M. Jane Lyon were celebrated Feb. 2 at the Congregationalist church ten miles south of Nebraska City. With her parents, Sister Jane embraced present truth under the labors of Brn. Cook and Rogers, in Missouri about six years ago. Though in the tender age of youth, she chose the people of God as her associates and Jesus as her all, and till her death lived a consistent Christian life. In confidence of soon meeting their loved one the parents say, “Thy will be done.” Services by the writer. CHAS. L. BOYD.
