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

Died of heart disease, at Colon, Mich., July 18, 1878, Bro. D. F. Quimby, aged 66 years. Although he complained of not feeling as well as usual a few days before his death, yet he was able to labor until about three hours before he died. We were called upon to attend his funeral, but when we arrived, we learned that he was buried about the time we left Battle Creek. We held a meeting with the little church there. These friends feel that in the death of their elder they have sustained a great loss. L. BEAN.

Fell asleep at Lapeer, Mich., July 17, 1878, infant son of Wallace and Anna Carpenter, aged six months and fifteen days. They sorrow, but not without hope. Discourse by the writer from Jer. 31:15. Wm. POTTER.

Our darling little son, Louie L., aged 4 months, died of summer complaint at Lenox, Kan., July 15. We mourn our loss, but are comforted by the hope that we may meet him again when Jesus comes. Funeral discourse by Eld. Bailiff, Methodist, from Job 14:11, 12, etc. J. S. AND ALICE OSBORNE.

Henry C. Booker died at Lockwood’s Corners, O., July 8, in the twenty-eighth year of his age. His death was caused by inflammation of the bowels. I buried him in the family lot, where his brother and father now lie. He died knowing that death claimed him, and trusting in the merits of the Saviour. S. J. BUCHER.
