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

DIED, of consumption, in Canaan, Me., Aug. 19, 1875, Nathaniel Hubbard, aged fifty-six years and seven months. For the last five years, he has been failing, and not able to do much work, but he was able to see to his business the most of the time. At the last he passed away suddenly. He embraced the third angel’s message about nine years ago, and died in the faith. He leaves a wife and one son to mourn their loss. Words were spoken from Rev. 14: 13. J. B. GOODRICH.

DIED, of typhoid fever, in Fairfield, Me., Aug. 16, 1875, Fred Eugene, youngest son of Isaac C. and Fanny Choat, aged eighteen years and one month. He was sick only about one week. Thus suddenly was the family circle broken by the unwelcome messenger, death, and the dear son was laid away to rest until Jesus comes. May the Lord bless the surviving members of the family, and may they all be gathered with the saints when the last enemy is destroyed. Remarks by the writer from Jer. 31: 15, 16. J. B. GOODRICH.

DIED, after a short illness, Aug. 9, 1875, our infant daughter, Grace, aged five months. Words of comfort by H. Sholander, S. D. Adventist, from 1 Thess. 4: 13-18. J. E. & A. V. NORDSTROM.

DIED, at Ridgeway, N. Y., Sept. 10, 1875, our dear babe, Willet T., son of James U. and Lucy T. Cottrell, aged ten months and twenty-two days. He was greatly beloved by us all. Our only consolation is that his sufferings are all past, and that he shall “come again from the land of the enemy.”

“Sleep, baby darling, Till Christ comes to save; Then burst, little coffin, And ope, little grave.” R. F. COTTRELL.
