“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
DIED, at Easton, Talbot Co., Md., March 6, 1877, of pneumonia, Sr. Philenda Stebbins, widow of the late Champion Stebbins, in the 76th year of her age. Three children, including our beloved brother, W. W. Stebbins, are left to mourn their loss, but they sorrow not as those who have no hope. She and her husband embraced the present truth some twenty years ago, and they both fell asleep in bright hope of a part in the first resurrection at the soon coming of Jesus Christ. I attended the funeral at Bethlehem, the 8th inst., and had the privilege of speaking to a good and attentive congregation; and we laid her by the side of her husband, who died a year and nine months before. R. F. COTTRELL.
DIED, near Canola, Elk Co., Kan., Feb. 10, 1877, Mauda May, daughter of Ambrose and Marsalene Yancy, aged seven months and fourteen days. Funeral discourse by the writer, from Rom. 8:28. J. H. COOK.
DIED, at Golden Gate, Minn., Nov. 10, 1876, Bro. Chester Green, in the 59th year of his age. He embraced the truth one year ago, and rejoiced in the soon coming of Christ. He professed to be a follower of Christ some thirty-six years, and was connected with the Seventh-day Baptist church at Adams Center, N. Y. Discourse by the writer, from the words, “If a man die, shall he live again?” HARRISON GRANT.
DIED, in Heath, Allegan Co., Mich., Feb. 16, 1877, of brain fever, Ada Adelle, daughter of J. F. and Rosanna Case, aged 15 years, 3 months, and 7 days. Remarks from Luke 14:13, 14. C. A. RUSSELL.
DIED, of consumption, near Bowling Green, Wood Co., O., Jan. 27, 1877, Sister Meeker, aged 78 years. She leaves a large circle of friends. She embraced present truth with her husband about twenty years ago. Her last sickness was short. Although she suffered very much, she bore it all with patience, and in her last hours gave the best of evidence of her acceptance. She exhorted her children to prepare for the world to come, that they might meet again by-and-by, when the Life-giver shall come. J. B. GREGORY.
