Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.
DIED, in Riverton, Mason Co., Mich., Sept. 9, 1871, Jane A. Hoyt, wife of A. T. Hoyt, and daughter of David J. and Sybil Burroughs, aged thirty-six years. She leaves a large circle of friends to mourn her loss, and a large family to miss her care. She was a true wife and a tender mother. She embraced the advent faith some ten years ago, and continued firm in it till her death. M. M. Hoyt.
DIED, near New London, Henry Co., Iowa, of diphtheria, Dec. 17, 1871, Eddie Warren Elwood, only child of W. W. and M. F. Conklin, aged three years, six months, and twenty-one days, after a brief sickness of only four days. Words of consolation were spoken to the much afflicted parents, and numerous sympathizing friends and neighbors, from Jer. 31:15, 17: “They shall come again from the land of the enemy.” Blessed hope to those suffering so great a loss!
“So fades the lovely, blooming flower, Frail, smiling solace of an hour. So soon our transient comforts fly, And pleasure only blooms to die.” GEO. L. BUTLER.
