Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.
Died, at our residence in Clinton, Henry Co., Mo., Sept. 28, 1871, of congestion of the brain, our dear little May Belle, aged precisely six years. She was beloved by all who knew her because of her inoffensive and harmless disposition; and it was a severe stroke, and an intense struggle with us to give her up. But we trust that this affliction may not lead us to turn from the Lord and his truth, but that it may be sanctified to the end that we may be more holy, more fully resigned to do the will of the Master, and withal be strongly animated with the hope of those who rely upon the promise that their children shall come again from the land of the enemy at the sound of the last trump. T. E. Morey. M. A. Morey.
Died, in Oronoco, Olmstead Co., Minn., Oct. 26, 1871, Martha A., wife of Bro. Ira Warner, aged forty-five years and nine months. She embraced the Sabbath about thirteen years ago, under the labors of Eld. J. H. Waggoner in Ohio. She leaves a husband and ten children, the youngest but two years old, to mourn her loss. But they mourn not without hope. Words of comfort by J. H. Ellis. H. F. Phelps.
Died, in Greenwood, St. Clair Co., Michigan, Oct. 14, 1871, Sarah Catherine, infant daughter of Bro. Reuben, and sister Rachel Oatman, aged two years. Discourse by the writer, from 1 Pet. 1:24. D. H. Lamson.
Died, of consumption, Sept. 7, 1871, in Bushnell, Mich., sister Rachel Lane, aged twenty-five years. Services by the writer. P. Strong.
Died, in Saginaw Co., Mich., Sept. 30, 1871, of lingering consumption, Gillman E. Merrick, aged twenty-eight years and one month. Gillman contracted his disease while in the army, and for nearly ten years has been a great sufferer, though bearing his afflictions with Christian patience and fortitude. Funeral services by father Woolsey, Methodist, from Rev. 14:13. We buried him in hope. D. W. Milk.
