“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”

Died, at Soldier Valley, of lung fever, April 31, 1874, Minnie May, the adopted daughter of Joseph and Mary Miles, aged one year and three months. We laid her down in hope, to sleep in her little grave until the voice of the Archangel shall call her from the land of the enemy. J. W. McWilliams.

Died, April 30, 1874, at the residence of Eld. Rufus Baker, Mackford, Wis., of quick consumption, my mother, Olive M. Patten, aged 55 years. Remarks by Eld. Baker. Simon Patten.

Died, in Heckter, Potter Co., Pa., John Sawyer, aged 66 years. He embraced the Sabbath of the Lord in 1858, and died in hope of eternal life when the Lifegiver comes. Funeral discourse by the writer, from Rev. 22 : 12. J. S. Stocum.

Died, in Saginaw Co., Mich., Feb. 22, 1874, of consumption, our young sister Vanora Pangburn, in the 16th year of her age. Few of her age loved the truth more. She bore her sickness with great patience. She was much concerned to know that nothing was left undone in the work of preparation, and rests in hope of a part in the first resurrection. We would say to the young, Be ye also ready. C. Stoddard.
