DIED, near Salem Center, June 8, 1874, sister Lydia M. Lock, aged seventy-three years, eleven months, and eighteen days. She embraced the Sabbath and other truths of the third angel’s message about the year 1850, and from that time, until her death, was a worthy member of the Seventh-day Adventist church. She leaves a large circle of friends to mourn, but not without hope. Her children have lost an affectionate mother, the church one of its most useful members. She entered the dark valley with a bright hope of a part in the first resurrection. Remarks by the writer. H. L. DOTY.

FELL asleep in Jesus, March 30, 1874, at Melbourne, P. Q., after an illness of five weeks, of influenza and bronchitis, William Hills, aged seventy-one years, six months, and fifteen days. He leaves an aged widow and eight children, and numerous relatives to mourn their loss. He was a firm believer in the keeping of the commandments of God, the fourth not excepted, and the faith of Jesus. He died the death of the righteous, and his end was peace. ELIZABETH F. HILLS.
