“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”
DEPARTED this life, June 24, 1877, sister Priscilla Slocum, in the sixty-fourth year of her age. She died of heart disease, while on a visit to her daughter residing in Bennington, Ill. She was formerly a Methodist; but about a year ago, she was led to search the precious word, and there found that the seventh day is the Sabbath. She loved the law of God. It was her meditation day and night. She was anxious for her children, who, she feared, did not respect that holy law. Just before she died she expressed gratitude to God that he put it into my heart to help her to our meetings. She said she was resting in Jesus, and thus she fell asleep. LAURA R. GILMAN.
DIED, in Neenah, Wis., June 26 and July 27, of malignant scarlet fever, our dear children, May, aged 4 years, 10 months, and 15 days, and Freddie, aged 3 years, 6 months, and 11 days. L. H. AND DELIA E. RUSSELL.
