Grice.—Died at his home near Rago, Kan., John Grice, aged 80 years, 6 months, and 4 days. He quietly fell asleep with a bright hope of a part in the first resurrection. The funeral service was conducted by the writer in a grove near the house. C. W. Hardesty.

Withrow.—Died in Trowbridge, Mich., July 15, 1906, Sister Anna Maria Withrow, aged 62 years, 1 month, and 6 days. Sister Withrow had been a consistent member of the Allegan church for twenty-four years. She leaves a husband, one son, one daughter, and two sisters to mourn their loss.

Price.—Died at her home near Willis, Mich., July 12, 1906, Sister Price, at the ripe age of over 86 years. Owing to the cruelties of slavery, she and her husband fled for their freedom, in 1854, to Canada. By hard toil they secured the beautiful home where Sister Price was living at the time of her death. Nine children were born to them, three of whom still survive. Sister Price was a faithful Christian, and looked forward with a fond hope to the soon coming of the Saviour. E. K. Slade.

Miller.—Died at Rohnerville, Cal., Feb. 13, 1906, Henry Price Miller, aged 74 years, 5 months, and 12 days. Brother Miller early gave his heart to the Saviour, uniting with the Christian Church. He first heard the third angel's message from the lips of Elders Ballou and McClure at tent-meetings held in Ferndale, Cal., over twenty years ago, and became one of the charter members of that church. Though mourning, we are comforted by the blessed hope that was his to the last. W. W. Wheeler.

Frost.—Died at Ferndale, Cal., April 10, 1906, of heart failure, Sister Amanda Kinzel Frost, aged 58 years, 6 months, and 29 days. Of a cheerful and sunny nature, ever ready with a word of sympathy to those in distress, and where material help was needed always more than willing to do her part, she is greatly missed in the family and among her large circle of friends, and in the church and Sabbath-school. She fell asleep without warning, but had made her peace with God many years ago. W. W. Wheeler.

Richmond.—Died at his home in Greenbush Township, Clinton Co., Mich., July 17, 1906, of bronchial consumption, Herman L. Richmond, aged nearly 79 years. He embraced the truths of the third angel's message about fifty years ago under the labors of Elder Holt, and remained a firm believer in them till the end. He is survived by his companion, one daughter, and numerous other relatives, who sorrow, but not as those who have no hope. Funeral service was conducted by Rev. Mr. Sprague in the M. E. church; text, Rev. 20:6. Interment took place in the Eureka Cemetery. E. L. Richmond.

Tucker.—Died at his home near Elk Point, S. D., July 13, 1906, Brother John Tucker, aged 71 years. He was born in Devonshire, England, and as a young man was employed in the British navy, and during his years of service visited nearly every part of the world. In 1897 he and his wife came to the United States, soon after which Elder E. W. Farnsworth, then a young man, preached in a schoolhouse near their home. With gladness they accepted present truth. Of the ten children born to them, seven are still living. Mother Tucker, although infirm with age, is sustained by the blessed hope. As a citizen Brother Tucker was highly respected. He served one term in the State Legislature, and at the time of his death was one of the county commissioners. The funeral service was conducted at the house and at Elk Point Academy chapel, by the writer. J. W. Christian.
