“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
Died, in Napa, Cal., Dec. 22, of pneumonia, after an illness of one week, sister Caroline M. Richie, aged sixty-seven years. Sister Richie kept the seventh day from the tent-meeting in Napa, and rests in hope of a part in the kingdom. J. N. Loughborough.
Died, in Hastings, Oswego Co., N. Y., Dec. 5, 1873, of scarlet fever, Reuben Avery, youngest son of Alonzo and Jenett Dolly, aged four years and nine months. While they mourn their loss, they rejoice in the hope that the Life-giver is soon coming to bring their loved one again from the land of the enemy. Discourse on the occasion by Eld. Owen, Baptist. F. Wheeler.
Died, in Pitcairn, St. Lawrence Co., N. Y., Nov. 19, 1873, Bro. Edward Rose, aged thirty-two years, five months, and nine days. Bro. R. commenced to receive light on the message of Rev. 14:9 one year ago. His health was then poor. His faith took hold of God’s word, and, not being able to attend public meetings, he searched the Bible diligently to know its teachings. He was enabled to say of a truth that the Sabbath was a delight. His greatest struggle was to leave his wife and three children. Jesus gave him victory, and he passed quietly into the arms of death, hoping for a better resurrection among the blest and holy, when the Lord himself shall descend from Heaven. 1 Thess. 4:16. Discourse from 1 John 3:8. C. O. Taylor.
Died, in Waterloo, Black Hawk Co., Iowa, Nov. 6, 1873, of pneumonia, after an illness of three days, my beloved companion, L. Lathrop, aged forty-five years. We laid him away to rest until the Life-giver shall appear to claim his own. Funeral services by A. A. Ellsworth, pastor of the Congregational church of this place. Sarah I. Lathrop.
Died, Oct. 2, 1873, in Fine, St. Lawrence Co., N. Y., sister Laura Butterfield, aged twenty-one years, seven months, and eight days. Sister B., though meeting with some opposition, was enabled one year ago to receive and obey the present truth, and cast her name and influence with those keeping the commandments of God. Her disease was quick consumption, and her death sudden. The funeral services were attended about six weeks after her death. Text, Heb. 9:27. C. O. Taylor.
