Obituary Notices.

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

Died, at Newark, Ohio, Aug. 13, Llewellyn Monroe, son of L. W. and M. E. Richardson, aged 3 years, 3 months, and 11 days. Llewellyn was a lovely, intelligent little boy. He rests till the Lifegiver comes, to give life to his people. Discourse on the occasion from Job 14: 14. Wm. Cottrell.

Died, in Richford, Waushara Co., Wis., Aug. 19, 1877, of ulcer of the liver, our beloved brother, W. Farar, aged 70 years, 5 months, and 5 days. He died in full hope of a part in the first resurrection. He will be greatly missed in the church where he lived, as he was always at his post, both in works and with his means. Discourse by the writer. Text, Isa. 3: 10, 11. John Atkinson.

Died, near Smethport, McKean Co., Pa., Aug. 13, 1877, our beloved sister, Louisa F., wife of Bro. Philip Kent, and daughter of J. H. and Elizabeth Bedford, of Catlin, Chemung Co., N. Y. Sister Kent was married last March, and moved to Potter Co., Pa., where she united with the Port Allegany church of S. D. Adventists. She was indeed an ornament to the church—a live member. She went to Smethport with her melodeon to assist us in conducting the singing in the tent, and afforded great help. After being there one week, she was taken with a sick headache, and soon the typhoid fever set in in its most malignant form. After eight days’ illness she died. She was prepared. Death had lost its terror. She leaves a large circle of mourning friends, and a bereaved husband. Funeral services by the writer. Text, 1 Thess. 4: 13. J. G. Saunders.
