DIED, in Napa City, Cal., April 27, 1876, Nora P. B. Myers, aged 15 years and 7 months.

Sister Nora was converted to the truth in March, 1874, under the labors of Bro. E. R. Jones, in Athens, Calhoun Co., Michigan. She was baptized at the camp-meeting in Battle Creek in August of that year. Soon after that meeting, the family removed to California, partly on account of the state of her health, which had been very poor for several years. She seemed steadily to improve until the last camp-meeting in Marin Co., Cal., when she over-exerted herself in climbing the hills which surround the camp-ground, and took cold, from which time she declined until her death. She was zealous for the truth, and conscientious in observing the Sabbath. She suffered very much at times, but when her pains were most severe, she would fall into a peaceful, quiet frame under the influence of prayer. She bore all with patience, and often praised God in the midst of her sufferings. We laid her in the grave, feeling that she needed rest, and consoled by the blessed hope of soon seeing her, when the Life-giver appears, free from all the ills of mortal life.
