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

Fell, calmly asleep at Cottage, Cattaraugus Co., N. Y., March 22, 1874, our brother, Ryland Warren, of quick consumption, in the twenty-seventh year of his age. Ryland loved the present truth to the end. He made most humble confession, and seemed to have much of the grace of God to sustain him in his sufferings. His words and manner showed that God had done a work for him. He said, “I love everybody. It seems that the Lord has given me love where I used to have hatred.” At the funeral, Bro. W. W. Stebbins spoke comforting words from 2 Cor. 4: 17, 18.

We shall miss thee, our dear brother, We shall miss thy loving care, We shall miss thy voice in singing, We shall miss thee in our prayer.

But thy many acts of kindness; Thy desire to do the right; Thine integrity of purpose; Are to us a memory bright.

Oh! we long for Jesus’ coming As we never have before, When the Archangel’s trumpet wakes thee, Death can never part us more.

ELVIRA & AMANDA WARREN.
