Obituary.

CUSHMAN.—Died of consumption, at St. Clair, Nev., May 24, 1885, Mary E. Cushman, aged 41 years, and 11 months.

Sister Cushman was born in Ohio, came West in her youth, and resided almost twenty years in the neighborhood where she died. Her disease dated back more than fifteen years before her decease. She embraced the present truth in the winter of 1877-78. Her sufferings at times were intense, but she told her friends to be anxious for themselves, and not for her. Her husband and two sons, with other relatives and friends, are bowed with grief; nevertheless they expect immortality to be given soon. Sermon by the writer from Num. 23:10.
