“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
Died, in Richmond, Maine, Dec. 7, 1874, of Consumption, after a long and painful sickness, Eld. Levi D. Tolman, aged thirty-two years. He was formerly a first-day Adventist minister, and greatly beloved by all who knew him. He first had his attention called to the third angel’s message by Elds. White and Waggoner; and after giving the subject a careful investigation, he embraced it with all his heart, and rejoiced in its truths until he died. He had a great desire that all should hear and embrace it, and often said to me that he should like to proclaim it to the world if he had health, but was willing that the Lord’s will should be done. He leaves a kind companion, who greatly feels her loss. He was a kind husband and faithful Christian. A few hours before he died, he charged his aged father and mother and other friends to meet him on the other shore, and died in the full triumph of faith. By his request, Eld. J. B. Goodrich preached his funeral sermon from Rev. 14: 13, to a large congregation. R. S. WEBBER.
Died, near Peru, Madison Co., Iowa, Dec. 23, 1874, of fever, sister Catharine Marshal, in the fiftieth year of her age. Sister Marshal embraced the truth four years ago this winter under the labors of Eld. D. M. Canright. She lived in the faith of the third angel’s message from that time until her death, though at times under rather discouraging circumstances. She had a strong faith in all the reforms connected with the message. The day before she died she called her children to her bed side, exhorted them to shun all bad company, and such places as would have a bad influence over their minds, and to be good children. She died in full faith of soon meeting her Lord. BENJ. GIFFORD.
Died, in Denver, Colorado, Dec. 27, 1874, my father, H. Westover. He was walking about the day before his death. He was seventy-five years old. Has been a strict observer of the Sabbath for twenty years. He died in the blessed hope of immortality. O. S. WESTOVER.
