By Uriah Smith

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

Died, in Detroit, Mich., Sept. 9, 1874, of typhoid fever accompanied with palsy, Patience Daniels, wife of D. L. Daniels, formerly of Potter Co., Pa., aged 61 years and 8 months. She was the mother of seven children, of whom all are living, and six were present at the funeral. Great is the sorrow of Bro. Daniels and his afflicted family at this the first entrance of death into their circle. But she has left behind what will be to them a constant comfort and inspiration; namely, a godly example, and the record of a well-finished life. This family have long known the truth. The Lord help them to fulfill that promise which was the comfort of their mother’s dying hour, that they would all obey the truth, and try to meet her in the first resurrection. Funeral services conducted by the writer at the Washington Avenue Christian Church, Sept. 11. U. S.
